Ebby Glockner officially bought the 20 acre of land/homes at Dam 31 in March 1967. It consists of 5 livable homes on a hillside overlooking the Ohio River. The Dam's "Powerhouse" is still originally intact and COULD be listed on a list of Historical Places if the Glockner Family so chooses. Dam #31 is still owned by the Glockner Family today and is still considered "Home" to Gregory, since it was his primary home from 1977 - 1979.
