Summary[edit]
| Description |
One of Boldt Castle’s most photographed structures is the Power House and Clock Tower. Located on the eastern end of Heart Island, it was designed in the fashion of a Medieval Tower. To date it was one of the Thousand Islands Bridge Authorities largest reconstruction projects after a fire in 1939 severely damaged the building. Today it stands as George Boldt had originally intended, rising out of the St. Lawrence River from an underwater shoal. Connected to Heart Island by its one of a kind, picturesque, arched stone bridge. While its design is beautiful, it was designed as much for function as fashion. It housed two generators that would supply electricity to the entire island. Boldt Castle was built by multi-millionaire George C.Boldt as a testemonial of his love for his wife,Louise.One year before Bolt castle was to be completed,Luise,aged 41, died.Brokenhearted,Geroge Boldt stopped the constrction and never returned to the Island. The Thousand Islands actually has more the 1000 islands ,which dot the St Lawrence River,the river between the two national mainland Canada and USA. Thousand Island,Canada. 408 |
