British forces burned Buffalo in 1813 during the War of 1812. Residents rebuilt quickly and finished by 1815. They hoped the planned Erie Canal would bring prosperity. With help from Samuel Wilkeson, they enlarged the harbor and won the canal terminus over rival Black Rock. The canal opened in 1825 and brought trade and industry.
