Hydraulic structure in The Judge(Movie)

I would like to know what kind of hydraulic structures has been used in this townn? Is it a detention pond? why do these facilities locate in residential area?
cheers.

RE: Hydraulic structure in The Judge(Movie)
As to why it is located in a "residential area", the town would have grown up around the falls, which would have been harnessed to powered mills long before the hydroelectric plant was built. Many mill towns were built around steep gradients because they were the most effective locations for water power.
Lots of interesting details in the 1913 edition of "Power".
