This dam is located at the south east portion of Silver Lake in Waterloo Park, in Waterloo, Ontario. The water outlet and dam keeps the water in Silver Lake and has been made to look like a natural water fall. Unfortunately a 2017 report stated the this structure is "in poor condition (cracked an leaking) and in need of repair."
Nearby is the Abraham Erb Water Mill which would likely have used a dam in this area to run.
