@CitizenMurphy Port Gibson was Canandaigua’s Erie Canal consolation prize. It was intended to be Canandaigua’s canal port. Note how the Wayne/Ontario county line jogs there to give Ontario County a bit of the canal.

Happy 200th Birthday Monroe County from your friends at G/FLRPC! On Feb 23, 1821, at the urging of Nathaniel Rochester to form a county centered on the soon-to-be-boomtown of Rochester, the NYS Legislature created Monroe County from portions of Ontario and Genesee Counties.

The Erie Canal transformed the Genesee-Finger Lakes Region, made New York the Empire State, and had a substantial impact on national history, development, trade, and cultural patterns. (2/2)

It’s Erie Canal Day! On this day 195 years ago, the Erie Canal opened as a flotilla of boats left Buffalo for NYC. The news of this momentous event was flashed across the state in 90 minutes by a series of cannons spaced a few miles apart. (1/2)
