Power House No. 2, just below the doomed St. Francis Dam, as it appeared in January 1928, two months before the disaster. The 41,800-hp power plant was located six miles below Power House No. 1 (which survived, since it was above the dam).Photo by Keystone, from the Security Pacific National Bank collection.
