Some reminders of the canal still exist. South of the Capitol, a road named Canal Street connects Independence Avenue, SW, and E Street, SE (although the northernmost section of the street was renamed Washington Avenue to commemorate the state of Washington). A lock keeper's house built in 1835 at the eastern terminal of the C&O Canal (where the C&O emptied into Tiber Creek and the Potomac River) remains at the southwest corner of Constitution Avenue, NW, (formerly B Street, NW) and 17th Street, NW (see: Lockkeeper's House, C & O Canal Extension).(2) Coordinates of lock keeper's house: </ref> The western end of the City Canal emptied into the Potomac and connected with the C&O Canal near the lock keeper's house.(2) "The Washington City Canal" marker "in" website of HMdb.org: The Historical Marker Database.
