This is a promo pic of Construction Company using Attex's out in the bottom of the "Dry Niagra riverbed", near the edge of the American side of Niagara falls. You can see the Canadian side flowing on the right side of the pic. This was in 1969 when the army corps of engineers shut the American side off for testing and studies. I think it was dry from July to
november 1969. Wow, I just realized this was during woodstock (Aug 15-18) 1969 and probably not far from there.

I was going to say, I thought that looked awfully familiar! Here's a link to a local news article about it: Rare photos of Niagara Falls surface | WIVB.com
I think I saw some more pics of these two Attexes driving around there in an old sales brochure too.
