Dundee Canal, Historic canal in Passaic County, US
The Dundee Canal extends 1.2 miles from George Street in Passaic northward, running parallel to the Passaic River through industrial areas.
Built between 1858 and 1861, the canal supplied hydropower and water for manufacturing facilities, contributing to the rapid growth of Passaic's population.
The canal forms part of the Dundee Canal Industrial Historic District, which includes textile mills and manufacturing sites from the 19th and 20th centuries.
The National Register of Historic Places designation protects the canal's structures and requires specific guidelines for modifications to maintain historical features.
The construction of Dundee Dam at the canal's north end created Dundee Lake when water levels rose following legislative authorization in 1857.
