Original location of the Powers Ferry river crossing. See the two channels cut into the river? That was the crossing point for the ferry.

  • Maybe this highlight is misplaced otherwise I believe this is incorrect. I'm pretty sure the actual ferry crossing took place where Powers Ferry Rd currently crosses the Chattahoochee River. Besides, no known roads have ever come down to this point.
  • correct.. the original crossing was near to the Powers Ferry/285 crossings ..closer to the present day "Powers' Island" park...
