SOUTH SASKATCHEWAN WEIR, SASKATOON, SK - 2004
Built in 1934 as a "relief" project to help control water levels and act as a reservoir in times of drought it is now one of Saskatoon's landmarks, was initially developed as a water reservoir and regulator of water. However, with the development of the Gardiner Dam in 1967, the weir was no longer necessary to regulate water flow. The weir remains one of Saskatoon's most popular visitor attractions for viewing wildlife and resting along the Meewasin Valley Trail.
