“The Waterway of Change will share the remarkable story of the Erie Canal and the area known as Canalside with visitors. As the 200th anniversary of the Erie Canal approaches, this visitor experience will draw more people to Buffalo’s waterfront and help them connect to its history in a new and participative way.”
