Erie Canal, 1825
The Erie Canal was built between 1817 and 1825 under the direction of New York State Governor De Witt Clinton. It runs East-West across NY State from near Albany (on the Hudson River) 363 mile west to Lake Erie , near Buffalo. It opened up the entire Great Lakes system to water borne freight from the East Coast ports on the Atlantic.
The artificial waterway across New York State connecting Albany on the Hudson River with Buffalo on Lake Erie is the Erie Canal. The Erie Canal was in the past the main route for transporting goods from New York City ports to Buffalo, where they could be shipped across the Great Lakes. Thus, goods could be transported across the entire country all by waterways.
