Chamber Brings Historic Mural Project to Fulton

The mural will depict a 19th century view of the Oswego River with the Hunter Arms factory, where Charles Jerred once worked, in the background.</p>More than 100 years ago the city of Fulton’s strategic location on the Oswego River and the success of the Erie Canal system played a major role in the city’s growth as factories were built and commerce flourished along the Erie Canal. Those exciting times are part of the rich heritage of Fulton that will be brought to life in a colorful mural that will soon overlook the river and the Towpath Trail.
