Notes
  • Significance: The Delaware River Portal is the western terminus of the Morris Canal. The canal is one of the few amphibious waterways in America. The river portal was the starting point for coal laden barges that made their way eastward opening up much of northern New Jersey for expansion industrialization. Since the eastern end of the canal has long been gone, the Delaware River portal is the only terminus of the canal still salvageable.
