The Canal New York Experience
New York’s Canals. Open for Business and Pleasure.
With the opening of the Erie Canal in 1825, economic development and expansion exploded across New York State.
An unprecedented era of commerce and travel was born. A young nation grew. A state gained empire status. New York’s Canals are part of our history, heritage and folklore. Today New York’s Canals are an incomparable destination for recreation and travel or to live and work.
