The story
The National Canal Museum, officially the Hugh Moore Historical Park & Museums, is a museum in Easton, Pennsylvania, and part of the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor. After a three-year transition during which the Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor operated the canal museum under a management agreement, the two merged. The D&L is now responsible for the National Canal Museum, Hugh Moore Park, the Emrick Technology Center, the Locktender's House Museum and the canal boat, Josiah White II. Officially known as Hugh Moore Historical Park & Museums, the National Canal Museum is located in Easton's Hugh Moore Park.
