Fort Point

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began work on Fort Point in 1853. Plans specified that the lowest tier of artillery be as close as possible to water level so cannonballs could ricochet across the water's surface to hit enemy ships at the water-line.

I love seeing a truly different view of the bridge like this. So well done. ~BV~

Great image and very clever of the engineers who most likely went to West Point! V
