Built in 1855, it was originally known as the Potter Building. A two-story brick structure,[4] it was fitted with iron doors and shutters, plus a filigree balcony railing.[5] The company's original ditch was put into use in 1850. The South Yuba Canal is now part of the public lands of the Tahoe National Forest.[6] The South Yuba Canal System is used for delivering domestic and agricultural water to Nevada City and its neighbor Grass Valley. The water also generates electricity in Northern California. It is approximately 18 mi (29 km) in length. Crossing private and National Forest lands, the canal is bordered by conifers and hardwoods.[6]
