About the event

Speaker Series - The Erie Canal: The Creation of the Empire State

Continuing our celebration of the 200th anniversary of the Erie Canal. The Erie Canal had a significant impact not only on the growth of Buffalo but the growth of the nation. This talk includes: the initial concept of the Canal, the political fight to make it a reality, the construction of this amazing civil engineering feat, and its effect on the economy of Buffalo as it became one of the largest inland ports in the world. This talk will be given by one of Explore Buffalo's founding docents, Debra Hall-Stonish.
