About Arkport, NY

Arkport was founded in 1797 by Christopher Hurlbut. The Canisteo River was used to ship crops, livestock, and timber to Baltimore using arks. The navigable portion of the river ended in Arkport; thus the name of ark-port. This practice of using arks as cargo vessels continued until 1825, when the Erie Canal was built and it became more cost-effective to ship crops via the canal. The existing Post Office was built in 1890.
