50 years ago, the Dutch-American illustrator Peter Spier published The Erie Canal, a rich visual guide to America’s greatest constructed waterway.
Spier’s joyful artwork will guide your building of a section of Connecticut’s Farmington Canal that connected New Haven to Massachusets. Construct a mini Passenger Boat, a Cargo Boat, a working lock (for outside play), a low bridge, and the Taverns and Stables that grew up along the canal.
Immerse yourself in the first community to community network. Visit the remains of the Canal with video.
