Tour the National Register Landmark Weighblock Building, restored to its appearance in the 1850's when it functioned as a canal boat weighing station. Board a 65-foot long canal boat to experience life and work on the Erie Canal and explore the history of Syracuse as it grew from swamp to city. Visit the Education Gallery filled with interactive exhibits, the re-created weighmaster's office and the orientation theater, with its overview of the adventurous history of the world's most successful canal.
Open seven days a week 10am - 5pm. Admission is free.
