This image shows Lock 33. The lock house has not yet been built on the river side, so it is unclear where the locktender lived. It is possible that he lived in the stone building nearby.
A feed store was built over the large bypass flume at this lock. Stores were built over the flumes at other locks also, likely because the immediate proximity to the lock made it easier to transfer heavy bags of feed or other items to and from the store and boats in the lock.
