FreightWaves Classics/ Infrastructure: Construction of the Delaware and Hudson Canal began 197 years ago
The period between 1800 and 1850 has been termed the Canal Era in United States history. Since the country’s founding after the War of Independence, the new nation’s leaders understood the need for a network of internal improvements to make continental transportation easier.
