Start of the Miami and Erie Canal

1825 - 1929

In emulation of those who, July 21, 1825,

here began the building of the

Miami & Erie Canal,

this Ohio property was rededicated

November 2, 1929, to its original purpose -

transportation, with the confident hope

that a super-highway soon would follow

Marker is at the intersection of Verity Parkway (Ohio Route 4/73) and Yankee Road, on the left when traveling south on Verity Parkway.
