Watervliet Side Cut Locks, also known as the West Troy Side Cut Locks and "Double Locks," is a historic set of locks for the Erie Canal located at Watervliet in Albany County, New York.The side cut locks connected the Erie Canal to the Hudson River to allow for simplified access from Troy. They initially consisted of a lock at theErie Canal (at about the modern 23rd Street), and a lock at the Hudson River.During the subsequent enlargement of the canal, the original lock at the canal and 23rd Street was doubled, and a new pair of locks were built gating to the Hudson River (while at the same time the general area was reconfigured.) The lock walls and sea wall are constructed of cut limestone blocks.
