The Northern Gateway

The Northern Gateway for antebellum trade was the primary trade route connecting the Midwestern United States with the Northeast and the Atlantic Ocean. The gateway's canals, rivers, and railroads drastically altered the makeup of America's economy, culture, and population distribution. As rail and waterway technology improved, the Northern Gateway became the preeminent trade conduit in the nation. It helped spur the growth of both eastern and western cities. Settlers rapidly began to settle in the burgeoning towns of the many trade points all along the gateway's route. It allowed goods and information to travel at unprecedented rates, which, in turn, completely re-vamped the style and processes of American culture and economics.
==Overview==
The Northern Gateway's primary throughway was the Erie Canal, which was completed in 1825. This man-made waterway traversed New York state 364 miles from Albany to Buffalo. In effect, it connected New York City with Lake Erie due to the fact that the Hudson River unites New York City with Albany. Thus, this feat of human engineering opened up trade between the Atlantic Ocean and Midwestern cities like Chicago. The Saint Lawrence River is the other key waterway of the Northern Gateway. It largely defines the US-Canada border in the northeastern section of the continent. It runs from Lake Ontario in northwestern New York through Quebec and Ontario to the Atlantic Ocean, north of Maine. A later development to the infrastructure of the Northern Gateway was the New York Central Railroad, which was finished in 1852. While it took a little more time than the canals to gain considerable freight traffic, it ended up connecting New York City, Boston, Ontario, Quebec, Erie, and Chicago.
