Sault Ste. Marie is the oldest city in Michigan
and one of the oldest cities in the entire United
States of America. Established in the mid-17th century, Sault Ste. Marie's
history is characterized by French and American fur trade competition. Delve
into the city's past on the Locks
Park Historic Walkway, which passes several historic points of interest,
including Plank
Alley, the site of the town's original business district; Fort
Brady, which houses French and American forts; and the Johnston
Homestead, the home of a famous 19th-century fur trader. At the 210-foot
Tower
of History, which yields exceptional views of Sault Ste. Marie's busy shipping
channel, the area's American Indian roots are examined through exhibits of clothing,
tools and ornaments. The jewel of Sault Ste. Marie's tourism industry is Soo
Locks, a waterway traffic system of immense proportions that passes well
over 10,000 ships from Lake
Superior to the lower Great Lakes each year. Boat tours, lighthouse cruises
and dinner cruises provide an exciting journey through the Soo Locks passage.
