Amoskeag: A virtual walking tour of Manchester’s riverfront

Join Merrimack River Watershed Council for a virtual walking tour of the historic canals and riverfront of Manchester, N.H. This virtual event will be held Tuesday, December 29 at 6:30 p.m. Presenter John Macone will lead a slideshow tour of the city’s Amoskeag Falls and Millyard area. We will walk through a fascinating section of the Merrimack Valley — site of its oldest known Native American settlement, its largest falls, and one of its most ambitious feats of water engineering. Along the way we’ll hunt for artifacts from the past, and trace the route of Manchester’s impressive canal network. The tour will follow a route that participants can walk for themselves at their leisure. A downloadable map guide will be available.*Photo credit: Dan Graovac
