Yes it was submerged when the dam was built creating Kentucky Lake in 1944.

The dam does not show up on the map because it is a wicket dam (the dam is lowered during high water). When the image was made the dam was under water. It is only raised during low water to maintain a deep enough pool stage above the dam for commercial traffic.

I may have been on the Delta Queen when this was taken. I worked on her for many years as a Riverlorian. I really miss that beautiful boat and hope some day that she will again be plying the rivers http://riverlorian.com/

Megan, the only way to get to this location is by boat. The land access at Shippingport Island is restricted. You can see this dam from the boat ramp at Clarksville.
