Description: Aerial view from the southeast (over downtown El Paso) of the corner of Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico, with the Rio Grande, American Diversion Dam, American Canal, and abandoned Smeltertown site, and the old ASARCO smelter area. The dam is in the center, below the railroad bridges over the river. The American Dam Headquarters is the white building. A segment of new privately built border wall is seen extending west from the dam. The highways are US 85 (CanAm Highway) on the left, Texas Loop 375 and Interstate 10 on the right.
