There's a Ghost Town at the Bottom of This Lake #shorts

Rawsonville was a Civil War-era sawmill town — until 1925, when Detroit Edison flooded it to build a hydroelectric dam. The town vanished under Belleville Lake. During the 2012 drought, its ruins resurfaced, giving a name back to a town most people had never heard of. Part of the Forgotten Towns series — abandoned places, lost communities, and settlements erased by time. ⏱ Chapters 0:00 A Civil War-era sawmill town 0:30 Detroit Edison's 1925 flood 0:55 A town underwater 1:15 The 2012 drought reveal 🔔 New Forgotten Towns documentaries weekly — subscribe for more. 💬 What forgotten town should we cover next?
