"About a half mile south of the bridge over the canal at Fairport Road, the original path of the old Erie turned dramatically to the east and looped in a semi - circle, before continuing its southern path toward Bushnell's Basin. In a stream or river, an area with this characteristic is called an oxbow, defined in the dictionary as " a U - shaped frame forming a collar around an ox's neck and holding the yoke in place" or in the case of a waterway, "a bend in a river resembling an oxbow."
