That idea was to create this transcontinental water transportation route using two canals, the erie canal through new york state, the ohio and erie through the state of ohio, that would ultimately connect new york city, hudson river, erie canal, lake erie, ohio and erie canal, ohio river, mississippi, all the way to the gulf of mexico. In the early days of america, we didnt have a big federal government, so in terms of actually funding and implementing the ohio and erie canal depends on the states.
