The Chesapeake and Delaware Canal bisects this New Castle County landscape, serving as a primary navigational artery between the Delaware River and Chesapeake Bay. On the northern banks, the community of Kirkwood and the expansion of Glasgow define the suburban character of the region, while the Canal Bridge provides a critical link for land transport. Large-scale preservation and memorial sites are prominent, including the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery near the shores of Lums Pond.
