The Caldersburgh Pearl was dedicated in 2001 as a full-sized replica of a three-cabin canal freighter (65' x 14'). The name Caldersburgh Pearl has special significance to Roscoe's past. Caldersburgh was the name of the original community (early Roscoe), founded in 1816. Pearl was the first name of a local canal boat captain, Pearl R. Nye (1872-1950).
