The Medina Culvert, built in 1823, is located about 1¾ miles
east of the Medina terminal and can be reached by the towpath. A
culvert was chosen as more economical than a bridge because the
canal crosses a valley here on a berm, and the surrounding land is
some 20 feet lower than the canal. It's the only place on the NY
canal system where a road crosses under the canal.
