"Locktender’s Garden
This outdoor exhibit was created in 1992, and is a recreation of a Victorian-era Canalside garden, with plants authentic to the period. It was developed and is maintained by the Syracuse Garden Club. Also in the garden is a section of the replica canal boat Nathan Roberts, which is queued and ready to enter the weigh chamber!"
