We were supposed to have canals here too.
When Adelaide (Capital of South Australia) was planned out, there were drawings for a canal beween the CBD, and Port Adelaide to transfer supplies to/from the port. If you look at Google maps, and check out Port Road, you'll see the huge nature strip in the middle that was originally allocated for the waterway.
Rail came along and thwarted those plans, unfortunately.
