The drydock at Chittenango Landing, on the enlarged Erie Canal, was built in 1855. There, craftsmen constructed and repaired the 96-foot long cargo boats which carried grain, lumber, coal, and the produce of the west to eastern markets. The museum tells of the construction of these boats and the workings of the restored drydocks, as well as some of the social history of the canal era.
