“America’s Stairway” is a new documentary that shines a national spotlight on Lockport’s iconic Flight of Five locks that helped shape America’s growth, tourism, and identity. Through stunning visuals and powerful storytelling, "America’s Stairway" connects our local heritage to the larger American narrative, proving that great moments in history often begin in small towns.
