When it was completed in 1825, the Erie Canal caused a great sensation. Though plans for an artificial waterway to link the Great Lakes with the eastern seaboard were underway as early as 1783, supporters of the project experienced difficulties in finding federal funding. With New York State footing the bill, construction finally began on the canal on July 4, 1817, following the inauguration of DeWitt Clinton, the canal's biggest advocate, as governor of New York. The Erie Canal's completion brought an increase in goods and capital to New York, surpassed Boston and Philadelphia as the leading financial and commercial center in the nation. For many years, the Erie Canal served as the chief traffic artery for both passengers and freight, and the population increased in large numbers throughout the state. However, the middle of 19th century brought steady competition from the railroads, and the canal's commercial importance was greatly reduced. Today, the Erie Canal is a branch of the New York State Canal System and is considered a relatively minor commercial waterway. In The Erie Canal: Linking the Great Lakes, read how this manmade waterway that extends from Lake Erie in Buffalo, New York, to the Hudson River in Albany helped shape the future of the Empire State.

Excerpt from Ship Canal From the Great Lakes to the Navigable Waters of the Hudson River The Committee on Railways and Canals, to which was referred the bill (h. R. 283) for ascertaining the feasibility and probable cost of constructing a ship canal from the Great Lakes to the navigable wa ters of the Hudson River, having had the same under consideration, report the same back with the recommendation that it do pass. The bill directs the Secretary of War to cause to be made accurate surveys, examinations, and final estimates of cost of construction of a ship canal by the most practicable route, wholly within the territory of the United States, from the Great Lakes to the navigable waters of the Hudson River, of sufficient capacity to transport the tonnage of the lakes to the sea, and appropriates the sum of $100, 000, or so much thereof as may be necessary, to defray the expense of such surveys and estimates. One hundred and fifty miles northwest of Duluth and Superior are the fountains of three of the great drainage systems of the American Continent. From there the flowing waters are sent northward to the ocean through Hudson Bay; southward to the ocean through the Mississippi Valley and the Gulf, and eastward to the ocean through the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence.
