This 57-foot (17 m) dam has for over 90 years submerged the falls for which the City of Cuyahoga Falls was named; more to the point of water quality, it has created a large stagnant pool with low dissolved oxygen .

The lake area impounded by the dam is 186 acres (75 ha). [3] The dam and gatehouse were each listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. [1] By the early 2000s, the dam was known to not be in very good condition, with failing spillway masonry, erosion, and other damage to the dam's stonework. [3]
The gates allowed water to be selectively channeled from any of the reservoirs (1, 2, or 3) into the Sudbury Aqueduct or into the river below the dam. There are also flood gates and equipment for moving the dam's flashboards. Today the gatehouse, Sudbury Aqueduct, and the pipes from reservoir number 3 remain part of MWRA's emergency systems.
Water impounded by the Ashland dam was originally fed to the aqueduct by a pair of 48-inch (120 cm) pipes.

The dam is an earthen embankment, built 83 feet (25 m) above bedrock and 54 feet (16 m) above the level of the reservoir.
