Answer 1

The correct answer is; "the actual start of construction for the Erie canal began on July 4, 1817."

Further Explanation:

The canal was first proposed in the late 1700's. However, nothing was started and talks about canal began again in 1807, with funding and official plans starting in 1808.

The construction ended in 1825 and had approximately 363 miles on the route. In that time, it was only the 2nd longest canal in the world. The people who opposed the canal had two different names for the canal, such as;

• Clinton's Big Ditch
• Clinton's Folly

However, this canal was the only transportation during that time with the exception of pack mules or horses and wagons. The population of New York doubled in size due to the port for the canal. In the end, the canal was a success.
