I finally brought Jen over to Arizona Falls today. Situated at a natural 20-foot drop along the Arizona Canal, the site is home to Phoenix first hydroelectric power station, built back in 1902. Today it powers ~150 homes in the area while serving as a neighborhood attraction and recreation spot.

These are just looped Live Photos, but couldn’t figure out how to post them correctly so I just imported them as quick videos.

And a few more photos, including some interpretative info.

A metal information sign titled Discover Arizona Falls with SRP discusses water, history, and sustainability related to the Arizona Falls. A water canal flows beneath a metal structure, with water being channeled over boulders in a partially shaded area. Water cascades in front of a mesh railing, creating a curtain effect against an industrial background. A public sign provides information about water, power, and community, including a map, text details, and historical photos related to the Salt River Project. A sign explains the sources of water for central Arizona, including snowmelt, reservoirs, and groundwater, featuring a map and an image of a river and dam.
