Erie Canal: Conception of the Canal In-Person
2025 is the 200th Anniversary of the Erie Canal.
While the Erie Canal took only 8 years to dig, getting to the point where digging could start was a nearly 100 year long process. This talk looks at the early efforts to harness New York’s interior
waterways and the political wrangling that almost kept the Erie Canal from happening.
Registration is requested.
