Dredging the Cedar Point Lagoons

This picture shows the men of the Detroit Dredging Company hand digging lagoons for owner George A. Boeckling at Cedar Point. The lagoon network would be used for transportation so that visitors could reach the boat docks at the Hotel Breakers. They also made it possible to carry coal to the new electric power station. Visitors could also enjoy traveling the lagoons by themselves.
