Construction of the 5.6-mile canal system in Lowell, Massachusetts began in 1792 when a group of Newburyport businessmen calling themselves the Proprietors of the Locks and Canals on Merrimack River were chartered by the Massachusetts legislature to render the Merrimack River navigable from the Massachusetts-New Hampshire state line to the Atlantic Ocean at Newburyport. This Historic Structure Report deals with the construction of the Pawtucket Canal and the Northern Canal with a breakdown of the history behind the construction of their elements. The report contains many illustrations and appendices to support the narrative.
