Well, there is and there isn't. Oswego is the port city, but its population is only about 19,000. Through the Seneca Canal and Oswego River, the port was connected to Syracuse, which then linked to other upstate cities via the Erie Canal. So all the canals sort of took away some of the importance of that part of the lake.
Anyways, nice update! I love the level of detail with the new textures!
