Paducah, KY – Workers in Paducah removed a floodgate at Third Street and Executive Boulevard near where the Executive Inn until recently stood making the Ohio River visible from the vantage for the first time in 30 years. The gate's removal comes about a week before Paducah's annual influx of visitors for the American Quilter's Society Show & Contest. The Paducah Sun reports city officials hope visitors are pleased with Paducah's changing riverside skyline.
