Lock #11 at the Erie Canal in Amsterdam. This view is looking East.

---

In the center of the lock, as viewed from the sidewalk on the deck, the white boards show the Lock's information.

Another look at the lock, this time looking West. The flowers on the deck are a nice touch!

---

Here's a wide shot of the entire facility looking Westward. One word of caution, be sure to watch where you step, as many many dogs seem to like to do their business on that lush green lawn!

Another view of the lock facility. A very impressive structure which can be seen in many locations along the canal which runs from the Niagara River in Buffalo (Originally, it ran all the way straight to Lake Erie before the NY Thruway was built) to the Hudson River.
