The New York Power Authority and New York State Canal Corporation unveiled the first lighting projects celebrating iconic infrastructure along New York State’s historic Erie Canal.
The new lighting is the first of several planned lighting projects to illuminate historic pieces of New York’s canalway infrastructure, both celebrating its history and inviting New Yorkers to enjoy the outdoor recreation and tourism opportunities that lie along the banks of the canal.
The new LED lighting features will illuminate and beautify the Fairport Lift Bridge over the Canal in Monroe County, as well as two Oneida Lake lighthouses—one in Brewerton in Oswego County, and another at Verona Beach in Oneida County.
