Answer:

New York City became a major center of commerce and trade after the Erie Canal was built in the early was built in the early 1800’s.

Explanation:

The Erie Canal was inaugurated on October 26, 1825 and connects Albany along the Hudson River with Buffalo, located on the Niagara River in the state of New York.

This connection was first proposed as early as 1699 but its construction began in 1817. About 584 km long, it has a total of 36 locks and a total height difference of 172 meters.

The canal allowed boats to access the great inland lakes from New York City, thus becoming an important trade route, allowing NYC to pass the city of Philadelphia as a commercial port. It was the first transportation system between the east coast and the western interior of the United States that did not require portage.

Which midwestern city experienced a major fire during the late 1800s
goblinko [34]

Chicago is a midwestern city that experienced a major fire during the late 1800s.

The Great Chicago Fire was a blaze that raged in Chicago, Illinois, in the United States, between October 8 and 10, 1871. Over 17,000 buildings and about 3.3 square miles of the city were destroyed by the fire, which also left over 300 people dead and more than 100,000 people homeless.

For many years, a goat that was once ejected from Wrigley Field was to blame for the Cubs' inability to go to the World Series. And for well over a century, the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 was started by a cow owned by Mrs. O'Leary.

The fire raged into the following day before ultimately being brought under control on October 10, when rain provided firefighting efforts a much-needed assist. An estimated 300 persons perished in the Great Chicago Fire, along with 100,000 more.
