Duke Village

Picture contributor: Anita Price Davis

The village consists of about 30 homes. Most are aligned along the main street leading to the power plant at the far end.

We’re glad to finally get some coverage on the website of the Duke Power Cliffside plant and village. Duke Energy contributed this photo to Mrs. Davis for her upcoming new book Chimney Rock/Rutherford County. The plant and village were built around 1940; the plant is still an integral part of the Duke Power system. The view is to the northeast. The town of Cliffside can be seen in the distance in the upper left.
