Cleveland Dam, Dam in North Vancouver, Canada

Cleveland Dam is a 91-metre-high concrete dam at the head of the Capilano River in Upper Capilano, North Vancouver, British Columbia. Completed in 1954, it holds back Capilano Lake, also called Capilano Reservoir, and stands within Capilano River Regional Park. The reservoir stores part of the Lower Mainland's drinking water from one of Metro Vancouver's three watersheds.

The Greater Vancouver Water District built Cleveland Dam between 1951 and 1954 to secure drinking water supplies for the growing region. The project addressed the need for a dependable source as the Lower Mainland's population expanded.

The structure carries the name of Ernest Albert Cleveland, the first commissioner of the Greater Vancouver Water District who oversaw regional water resource management.

The dam is accessible by car via Capilano Road, with designated parking areas near the structure for visitors. Bus lines 232, 236, and 247 connect the location to Vancouver, offering convenient public transit options.

The dam's drum gate has failed several times, releasing surges into the Capilano River without warning: a nine-year-old girl was killed in 1975, and on October 1, 2020, a maintenance release raised the river 3.58 metres and killed two anglers. Warning sirens were installed at three points along the river only after that accident.
