Sightseers line the bridge as workers remove the Pawtuxet Falls Dam at the mouth of the Pawtuxet River between Cranston, foreground, and Warwick, R.I., Tuesday, Aug. 9, 2011.  The demolition is the largest dam removal project in state history, intended to give some fish species better access to preferred spawning areas and to reduce flood risks by lowering water levels.
