This is the area within 500 meters of the hypocenter in Hiroshima where the atom bomb was dropped. Yet even here, 78 people miraculously survived. What did they experience that day?

Located in Western New York, it is home to the Erie Canal - celebrating its 200th anniversary this year - and the famous Flight of Five Locks, a lock system that lifts boats over the Niagara Escarpment.

For the residents of Lockport, who witnessed their city's decline after years of urban renewal, the restoration represents a reconnection with their history and a recognition of the city's pivotal role in the national saga. By focusing on Lockport and the Flight of Five, AMERICA'S STAIRWAY explores the Erie Canal's contributions to America and offers insight into its regional significance.
