Today
The Augusta Canal is the main source of drinking water in Augusta and is a centerpiece of the city. The seven mile long towpath forms a backbone for a recreational trail system. It also has been a center of redevelopment. Textile mills such as the Enterprise Mill have been converted to upscale offices and loft apartments. New projects, such as the Kroc Center, Harrisburg Canal Village, and Augusta Canal Park are proposed or under construction.
