26 oct 1825 año - Eerie Canal Completed

Descripción:

Canal built to connect the Atlantic Ocean and the Great Lakes, construction began in 1807. During this time period, there was no mechanization, and no railways connected these two regions, so the most effective way to transport goods was over water. This project gave a *huge* advantage to the port of New York over other American ports
