Erie Canal Museum Event: Lunchtime Lecture – A Crossing Situation: The Erie Canal at Schoharie Creek
April 14, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT
This presentation explains how the Schoharie Creek was an impediment to the Erie Canal before the artificial river opened. We’ll explore what Erie Canal engineers and builders determined was needed to cross the waters of the Schoharie from the earliest dam to the incredible John B. Jervis-designed Schoharie Creek Aqueduct, and what that meant for the success of the Erie Canal.
This talk will be available both in-person and on Zoom. It will also be recorded for those who cannot attend live. Attendance is FREE with a recommended $10 donation. You can register here: https://eriecanalmuseum.org/store/product/lecture/
