Discover the surprising history of Jordan Lake Dam

Jordan Lake, also known as B. Everett Jordan Lake, is a man-made reservoir located in New Hope Valley, Chatham County, North Carolina. It was constructed to control flooding in the area, which had historically caused hardships for farms and communities due to the difficult terrain and frequent floods. In the 1950s, the government acquired family homesteads to build the New Hope Dam, later creating Jordan Lake.
