What do Buffalo New York Cleveland Ohio and Erie Pennsyvania all have in common?
They all sit beside Lake Erie. All had lake ports and lake shipping (more in 1800s than now). All three cities used to have steel manufacturing. All three cities used to receive coal from other areas in PA and Ohio for use in local steel mills and for shipping it through Lake Erie to the Ohio Canal which went from Astubula through to Akron area, to the Ohio River, to the Mississippi River, and then to ports south at the Gulf of Mexico. The Ohio Canal was superceded by railroads coming in, which made coal and steel transports quicker, easier, and more profitable. The Ohio Canal is mostly dried up or filled in now.

The Erie Canal helped spread America's people, and wealth, and a more modern way of life. The Canal helped connect the cities of the East coast (like New York City) with "frontier" towns like Buffalo, which was over 400 miles west of NYC. The Erie Canal joined the St. Lawrence river in connecting the shipping lanes of the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean (not directly, but mostly, with some required transfers of the goods to wagons). The Erie Canal was built before long-distance railroad lines were built across the same territory. The railroads came some 30 or 40 years later.
