Visitors' buildings. Because the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority) system is owned by the public, visitors are encouraged to inspect the projects, and do so in large numbers. Many of them arrive after traveling long distances; therefore, restrooms and refreshment concessions are provided. The photograph shows such facilities at south end of Pickwick Landing Dam, divided between twin buildings which straddle the earthfill portion of the dam. The buildings front on an overlook terrace which connects with broad stairs to the lock operating deck below

Visitors' buildings. The visitors' reception building at the north end of Chickamauga Dam performs the same functions as described for the one at Pickwick. Its overlook terrace is partly covered by a canopy roof and projects toward the chamber of the navigation lock for a more favorable view of the locking operation, which is of great interest to visitors. The guard cubicle which appears on the left of the terrace is temporary for the duration
