'''Terusan Erie''' adalah sebuah jalur air di New York yang membentang sekitar {{convert|363|mi|km}} dari [[Albany, New York]], di [[Sungai Hudson]] ke [[Buffalo, New York]], di [[Danau Erie]], sehingga menyelesaikan rute air yang dapat dijelajahi dari Samudera Atlantik ke [[Danau-Danau Besar]]. Pertama direncanakan tahun 1807, terusan ini dibangun mulai 1817 hingga 1825 dan secara resmi dibuka<ref>{{cite web |title=The Story of the New York State Canals: Governor DeWitt Clinton's Dream |author=Roy Finch |year=1925 |accessdate=June 12, 2009 |publisher=New York State Engineer and Surveyor (republished by the New York State Canal Corporation) |url=http://www.nyscanals.gov/cculture/history/finch/index.html |archive-date=2009-09-04 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090904134031/http://www.nyscanals.gov/cculture/history/finch/index.html |dead-url=yes }}</ref> tanggal 26 Oktober 1825.
Terusan ini merupakan sistem transportasi pertama antara pantai timur (New York City) dan pedalaman barat (Danau-Danau Besar) Amerika Serikat yang tidak memerlukan [[pengangkutan perahu]], lebih cepat dari gerobak yang ditarik hewan, dan memotong biaya transportasi hingga 95%. Terusan ini mendorong perpindahan penduduk di barat negara bagian New York, membuka wilayah lebih jauh ke barat untuk dihuni, dan membantu New York City menjadi pelabuhan utama AS. Terusan ini diperbesar antara 1834 dan 1862. Pada 1918, terusan yang telah diperbesar ini digantikan oleh [[New York State Barge Canal]] yang lebih lebar lagi.
