200 Years on the Erie Canal In-Person
In 1825, New York celebrated the "Wedding of the Waters" with the opening of the Erie Canal. This engineering marvel transformed nearly every aspect of life in Rochester and across what would become the Empire State. Join the city and county historian for a tour through history on the canal.
Christine L. Ridarsky is the Rochester & Monroe County Historian. She has a master's degree in American History from the State University of New York College at Brockport and has completed all of her coursework toward a Ph.D. at the University of Rochester.
