  • Introduction and Purpose of the Plan
    1.1 1 Introduction and Purpose of the Plan PURPOSE OF THE PLAN In December 2000 the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor Act (PL 106- 544, title VIII) was adopted by Congress. Th is designation applies to all 234 municipalities adjoining the 524 miles of navigable waterway that comprise the New York State Canal System, including the Erie, Champlain, Cayuga-Sen- eca and Oswego; the historic alignments of these canals, including the cities of Albany and Buff alo; and related navigable lakes, including Seneca and Cayuga Lakes. Th e legislation acknowledges the instrumental role the canals played in the growth and development of the United States, and affi rms a national inter- est in the preservation and interpretation of the Corridor’s important historic, cultural, recreational, educational, scenic and natural resources. Th e legisla- tion stemmed from a 1995 Appropriations Act directive calling for a National Park Service special resource study which determined that the New York State Canal System was of “unparalleled national signifi cance,” merited federal rec- ognition, and assessed national heritage corridor designation.* While the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor benefi ts from numerous ongoing eff orts to protect, interpret, and promote its wealth of resources, the region’s residents agree that much more remains to be done.

  • Champlain Canal
    CHAMPLAIN CANAL The lowlands between Lake Champlain and the Hudson River have been a corridor for travel, trade, and warfare for centuries. This route linked the St. Lawrence River and Canada to the north and the Hudson River and Atlantic Ocean to the south. Generations of travelers carried their boats and cargo from the southern end of the lake at Whitehall to the head of small boat navigation on the Hudson at Fort Edward. The Champlain Canal, completed in 1823, opened an all-water passage. The Champlain Canal enters the head of Lake Champlain at Whitehall. This is also the northern terminus of the Hudson River Greenway Water Trail. For more information on this water trail, see hudsonrivergreenway watertrail.org. For more information on paddling Lake Champlain, see lakechamplain committee.com. FOR MORE INFORMATION: Information about things to do in the Champlain Canal region, including dining and lodging, is available from capital-saratoga.com. 238 NEW YORK STATE CANALWAY WATER TRAIL GUIDEBOOK | eriecanalway.org Champlain Canal–Whitehall WHITEHALL C Mile 60.86, west side 43.559372 -73.400811 Whitehall Marina Originally called Skenesborough, Whitehall is 7 North Main Street located at the southern tip of Lake Champlain Whitehall, NY 12887 and at the northern end of a historic overland (518) 499-9700 route to the Hudson River.
