The Morris Canal (1829–1924) was a 107-mile (172 km) common carrier anthracite coal canal across northern New Jersey that connected the two industrial canals at Easton, Pennsylvania, across the Delaware River from its western terminus at Phillipsburg, New Jersey to New York Harbor and New York City via its eastern terminals in Newark and on the Hudson River in Jersey City. The canal was sometimes called the Morris and Essex Canal, in error, due to confusion with the nearby and unrelated Morris and Essex Railroad.

rdfs:comment	Der Morris Canal war ein Schifffahrtskanal in New Jersey in den Vereinigten Staaten, der von 1824 bis 1836 auf Initiative der Unternehmers George McCulloch aus Morristown gebaut wurde und bis 1924 in Betrieb war. Der Kanal wurde von der Morris Canal and Banking Company (MC&BC) betrieben und diente hauptsächlich dem Transport hochwertiger Anthrazitkohle vom Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania zu den Industriestandorten in Newark und New York City. Das Hauptmerkmal des Kanals war die Anwendung von 23 schiefen Ebenen zur Überwindung der großen Höhendifferenzen, weshalb er sowohl ein Denkmal im National Register of Historic Places ist, wie auch ein bedeutendes Ingenieurbauwerk auf der Liste der Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks. (de) Kanał Morris – otwarty 4 listopada 1831 łączył rzekę Delaware w okolicy i rzekę w centrum miasta Newark w New Jersey. Początkowo miał 90 mil długości, w 1836 przedłużono go do Jersey City (razem 109 mil). Kanał przechodził przez tereny górzyste i dużą część podroży barki odbywały torami. Kanał umożliwił transport towarów pomiędzy doliną Leigh w Pensylwanii a portami w mieście Nowy Jork. Przeżywał rozwój do czasu wybudowania kolei w latach sześćdziesiątych. Na początku XX wieku został porzucony. Formalnie przejęty przez stan New Jersey w 1922.
