Chemung Canal
The Chemung Canal is a former canal in New York, United States. The canal connected Seneca Lake at Watkins Glen to the Chemung River at Elmira, New York. It was planned to connect the Finger Lakes region and Pennsylvania's Susquehanna River watershed with New York's Erie Canal system. The latter connected the Great Lakes with the Hudson River and ultimately the Atlantic port of New York City. The state government allocated $300,000 for the construction, which started in 1830 and was completed in 1833. Opening to full service was delayed because of damage from a rainstorm in May 1833. Damage by rain and seasonal flooding was a yearly problem during the use of the canal. Forty-nine locks were needed to raise and lower barges passing through the canal. The selection of the Chemung Canal's route was a disappointment to Ithaca, New York, which had hoped to make the Erie–Susquehanna connection via Cayuga Lake. In 1854, the completion of the Junction Canal extended the lengt ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
