Here's a lidar map showing the area just east of Washington. You can see the remains of the canal highlighted in green. It's still there.

Cool. Perhaps some sections near the roads got filled in. Usually when I see a historical marker for the canal, I can make out the remnants of the towpath, but no trench for the canal. Probably if I followed the path I'd find more.
