    A Love Letter to Village Life

    Nestled in the heart of New York, there lies a little village that is more than just a place on the map. It’s a place with a rich history and incredible community spirit, where residents are deeply connected to their roots and surroundings. This is the story of Middleport, New York, a community brought to life by its brilliant and charismatic Mayor, Dan Dodge. Middleport is a village where the heartbeat of America's Industrial Revolution still pulses vividly. It owes its existence to the Erie Canal, the vital artery that once connected the Great Lakes to the Hudson River. This waterway was instrumental in charting the course of America's destiny and has left a lasting legacy on the soul of Middleport. One of the unique aspects of the village is how it warmly embraces its historic waterway. The Erie Canal not only influenced the village's origins but is also an integral part of daily life. Take a walk along its banks, and you will be able to soak in local history, splendid scenery, and charming original architectural elements. You may even witness the annual Duck Derby where rubber ducks, purchased by residents, joyously float down the canal, carrying the community's collective anticipation and spirit. Apart from i...

This is the story of Middleport, New York, a community brought to life by its brilliant and charismatic Mayor, Dan Dodge. Middleport is a village where the heartbeat of America's Industrial Revolution still pulses vividly. It owes its existence to the Erie Canal, the vital artery that once connected the Great Lakes to the Hudson River. This waterway was instrumental in charting the course of America's destiny and has left a lasting legacy on the soul of Middleport. One of the unique aspects of the village is how it warmly embraces its historic waterway. The Erie Canal not only influenced the village's origins but is also an integral part of daily life. Take a walk along its banks, and you will be able to soak in local history, splendid scenery, and charming original architectural elements. You may even witness the annual Duck Derby where rubber ducks, purchased by residents, joyously float down the canal, carrying the community's collective anticipation and spirit. Apart from its historical significance, Middleport's essence is deeply intertwined with human connection and local businesses. Among the sturdy foundations of the village, there lies an old chemical plant that has stood witness to the ebb and flow of history. It’s not just a testament to the past, but also represents thriving and resilient local activity. Middleport is also abundant in picturesque green spaces. With three parks at a hand's reach, one situated alongside the pristine canal, residents are never far from the tranquility of nature. These green spaces aren't just venues for solitude but vibrant hubs of activity where children enjoy swimming programs, and boaters and campers flock to savor the enchanting aura of the canal-side village. Perhaps the most exciting development in Middleport is the restoration of the very first building ever constructed there. This small building, lying dormant along the canal bank, is about to be rejuvenated, standing as a symbol of Middleport's resilience and its enduring love story with history. Middleport stands as a village that honors its past while embracing its future. It is a place where every brick tells a story, where every street corner whispers rumors of the old times, and where the Erie Canal flows like a thread that artfully stitches together history, community, and a fervent love for the village. It's no wonder Mayor Dodge and his residents lead their lives with love in this extraordinary village.
