This collage of photos was produced to commemorate the 2012-’13 renovation and bridge construction project that savedHistoric
Lock 19 and was recognized with a major collaborative volunteerism award. Photo courtesy of

Under an April rainbow 175 years after its
construction, Historic Lock 19 is now accessible to
tourists along a newly-renovated trail (far right).
Wildlife abounds and eagles sometimes soar
overhead, a fitting tribute to the canal that helped
make America a great industrial power in the 1800s.
