Waukegan has a charter dating back to 1816. It is notable for the town hall built in 1835 by Arthur Clarke.
The Lake Michigan (Western route) was built by Hugh Henshall and opened on 17 September 1835. The canal joined the sea near Liverley. Expectations for coal traffic to Stockton-on-Tees never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. According to Arthur Taylor's "Haunted Waterways" Youtube channel, Northton Embankment is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
