Title
A name given to the resource
Lower Falls, Letchworth State Park
Description
An account of the resource
From a trail below the falls, we look back upriver to a WPA-era stone bridge constructed by Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) workers during the 1930s. This sort of organic stonework can be viewed at other locations in Western New York, like Stony Brook State Park in Dansville, Watkins Glen State Park in Watkins Glen, and Robert H. Treman State Park in Ithaca.

Description
An account of the resource
From a vantage point looking westward, we see the town of approximately 3,000 about a century after its first settlers began arriving following the 1797 Big Tree treaty. Incorporated in 1814, Perry initially was an agricultural area that increasingly came to be known for its proximity to beautiful scenery: the popular resort area of Silver Lake (pictured at top center), and the Genesee River gorge eventually constituted as Letchworth Park.
The availability of water from the Silver Lake outlet enabled a number of mills and other manufactures to be located in the town. Like many of its neighbors, Perry also had a salt mining company (under various names between 1886 and 1909).
