Conveniently located near The University of Alabama campus, and downtown Tuscaloosa, Lake Tuscaloosa is a reservoir that was created by damming North River. It was constructed to provide water for T-Town's residents and for industrial use as well. It was completed in 1970 at a cost of about $7,725,000. The lake is also very popular for recreational activities. Lake Tuscaloosa was constructed in response to the rising population of Tuscaloosa, which began to consume more water than its two current reservoirs, Harris Lake and Lake Nicol, could provide.
