Lock 17 Little Falls
Canal Place
LIttle Falls is located at a critical point on the Erie Canal, where the Mohawk Valley is very narrow. Lock 17 and Moss Island (both shown above) are must stops for anyone visiting Little Falls.
Located next to the river is Canal Place, located in old mills powered by the falls. Today they are filled with shops and antique stores. Good restaurants are nearby.
