Kelsey's is the 1844 — the 'Genesee Gorge' that's the built in, the 'Lower Falls' that's the just north of. The 'foreign flags' is the freedom — the 'Canadian vessels' that's the meant safety, the 'hundred a year' that's the Douglass, Tubman, Anti-Slavery Society's traffic. The 'fifteen minutes' is the Douglass's — the 'seemed longer' that's the aboard till gangplank, the 'shook hands' that's the relief described.
The 'parking lot' is the now — the 'landing gone' that's the physical erasure, the '2017' that's the Network designation came. The 'dominant port' is the '40s-50s — the 'flour, timber, salt' that's the cargo alongside people, the 'last stop' that's the before Canada. Kelsey is the ended — the 'boarded' that's the flag's protection, the 'assured' that's the marker's word.
The file keeps Kelsey's: the gorge landing, the foreign flags, Douglass's fifteen minutes, and the vanished dock.
Kelsey's Landing is the archive's New York file — the river's last stop.

WHY THIS FILE MATTERS
Kelsey's Landing is the archive's New York file — the dock where flags meant freedom.
A site keeps its gangplank — the file's suggestion being that Kelsey's hold is the departed: the 'fifteen minutes' that's the Douglass sweated aboard, the 'foreign flag' that's the instant jurisdiction change, and the 'gone' that's the parking lot's erasure.
