Seneca Chief Returns to Buffalo

The Seneca Chief, a stunning replica of the historic Erie Canal boat, has returned to Buffalo’s waterfront after a 22-day statewide tour designed to bring history to life—especially for kids. Stopping at communities along the canal and Hudson River, the “Back to Buffalo” voyage showcased stories of the original canal, its workers, and the land’s rich past. With a newly restored interior, live interpreters, and educational exhibits, the boat offers immersive experiences. Volunteers who built it were there to see it home. Now docked at Canalside through September, free guided tours, hands-on lessons, and special trips to Lockport and Tonawanda await. It’s a powerful, tangible tribute to Buffalo’s maritime heritage and the dedication behind this educational marvel. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
