Folsom Powerhouse State Historic Park

The Folsom Powerhouse is part of a colorful chapter of Sacramento history and is also an example of the tremendous advance in the commercial application of electricity. H.P. Livermore realized that the water of the American River could turn generators for electrical power in Sacramento, 22 miles downstream. With his partners, Livermore built the powerhouse, which still looks much as it did in 1895. 

Note: The images on this page were captured using the Leica M10, Leica Summicron-M 28mm f/2 ASPH lens, and ZEISS Distagon T* 35mm f/1.4 ZM lens. Capture One by Phase One was used to process the RAW files to black and white images.
