an early morning walk at Fort Taber

an early morning walk at Fort Tabor

Good Morning I hope all is well with you and that you have a good day

For todays post I am sharing a few shots of another visit to Fort Taber Park here in New Bedford

A 50-acre waterfront park that provides over a mile of ocean frontage located on the southern peninsula of the city which projects into Buzzards Bay. The park incorporates historical landmarks, offers many amenities and various opportunities for passive and active recreation.

Starting off as I often do on the beach looking towards the pier

a litle bit about the fort
Also known as the Old Stone Fort, Fort Rodman (known as "Fort at Clark's Point" until 1898) began construction in 1857 under the third system of US fortifications, and in 1862 construction became overseen by Henry Robert, author of Robert's Rules of Order and an Army Corps of Engineers officer. The fort, as built, had emplacements for 72 cannon in three tiers; a fourth tier was originally planned, but this was removed from the design to allow more timely completion. Construction was halted in 1871, and the fort as planned was never completed.

The fort is awaiting restoration and is not open to the public which I hope does come to be soon I would love to see inside it .

And that’s all folks

WOW! VERY cool images. Well done. My faves are the top two, those two longer exposure: 30 seconds and 25. There's always something about it that captures my soul.
