Guest Speaker: David Frew - Port Dover

Friday 04 May 2018, 07:00pm
Hits : 159

On Friday, May 4th at 7:00 p.m., popular speaker, David Frew, will share the story of “The Lake Erie Canal Expansion.” He will introduce us to Sir Casmir Gzowski, who became famous by taking over as chief engineer of the canal project. Long before engineering was recognized as a discipline in the United States, Gzowski lived in Erie and later moved to Canada, becoming one of Ontario’s iconic canal and railroad engineers. Gzowski was knighted by the Queen for his Canadian work on the Welland Canal, the Maitland to Colborne feeder canal and the Grand Trunk railroad. Gzowski is the great-grandfather of CBC Radio’s Peter Gzowski.

Admission is by donation.

Location Port Dover Harbour Museum - 44 Harbour Street, Port Dover, Ontario
