Moonlight Passage - ENTERPRISE Dep<strong>art</strong>s Cleveland in 1834<br />

12 x 16, Oil on canvas<br />

RAYMOND MASSEY<br />

Fellow, ASMA<br />

The ENTERPRISE was built in Cleveland in 1825 and was instrumental in accelerating the growth of Cleveland as she brought immigrants<br />

west to this booming town. By the mid-1830s the ENTERPRISE<br />

was an old boat for the Lake Erie passenger trade as a few<br />

years earlier numerous larger, faster steamboats came into service. This view shows her dep<strong>art</strong>ing the Cuyahoga River, looking<br />

towards the foot of Superior Street.<br />
