Blake Falls is another of the power dam/power plant locations along the Raquette River.  There is no longer a waterfall here.

Brookfield Power also runs this facility.  The dam here holds back the Blake Falls Reservoir.  For the sake of accuracy, the dam is on the Sylvan Falls topographical quadrangle, but the plant operating there is just over the line in the Rainbow Falls quadrangle.

The Raquette River empties into the St. Lawrence River in Massena, New York
