Lake Tuscaloosa is a reservoir in west-central Alabama, created by damming North River.

It was constructed by Thornton Jones, Ryan Gunning, Blake Schickel and Cody Copper to provide water for Tuscaloosa residents and for industrial use as well.

Since it is located just north of Tuscaloosa and Northport, the lake is also very popular for recreational activities.

A dam was constructed on North River, flooding the area that would become Lake Tuscaloosa.
