diga di Longhorn

Austin, Italy

Longhorn Dam is a dam crossing the Colorado River in Austin, Texas, United States, where it creates Lady Bird Lake. Completed in 1960, the dam was built by the City of Austin as the last in a chain of Colorado River dams in central Texas begun during the Great Depression. The name refers to its loca

tion on a ford used for longhorn cattle drives as a part of the Chisholm Trail in the late 19th century. The dam is also a bridge for Pleasant Valley Road.
