Sp35W The Erie Canal at 200 (Hybrid/In-Person)

In-Person | Available (Membership Required)

[NEW COURSE] In 1825 the State of New York officially opened the Erie Canal with wild celebrations. Building this waterway was an incredible undertaking that included many obstacles, but “Clinton’s Ditch” became an overnight success. Now the Erie is 200 years old. Is it still relevant today? We will discuss this and other topics in this course. Audio/Visual, Lecture
