Fort Duquesne

I love this City, I love this city because it was built on rock n roll and really cool forts like this one. We need a sixth star!

This is a lovely park, just steps away from downtown Pittsburgh. There are walking and biking paths, shady places to sit and enjoy the views and a vendor to buy drinks and snacks.

I thought this place has great energy. It’s the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers that starts the mighty Ohio River. It’s vastly a historical site with its ties to the very beginnings of the French and Indian War. It offers a great view of Pittsburgh and all its glory. Many walking paths that offer nice benches everywhere. Offers some stadium style seating along the rivers too.

Once upon a time fort...It’s destroyed long back... now it’s a memory and part of history

Lovely place, especially around Christmas time. Im one of the lucky ones to experience it all the time due to being on the river.

Best views of downtown here. Plus the history of the area is pivotal to US History overall.

I mean, its literally a concrete outline on the grassy lawn. Take it as you wish, but the surrounding park especially near the waterfront is beautiful.

Found the landmark! Easy to get to. The park is even better. Parking on the street -so can be difficult.

This is a very nice area, especially in the summer for walking your dog or exercise during lunch breaks.

French had a great defense

Bear in mind there is absolutely no physical structure here, just a very large, empty, grassy field with trees on either side. There is absolutely no museum here either at the site of where Fort Duquesne once stood. There is only a large marker in the ground (see my picture) and the outline of the fort laid out in the middle of the field. The fort itself was destroyed by the French in 1758 before the advancing British General Forbes arrived. The closest museum is the Fort Pitt Museum, detailing the fort that was built just to the east after Fort Duquesne was razed, the founding of Pittsburgh, and the wars that enveloped the area afterwards.

Amazing I just got back from there to the place I live now this morning and it was a wonderful experience You need to check it out!

This historical site offers more depth to the traditional colonial history of Pittsburgh. The location also provides a good launching point for more site seeing in the area.

Interesting history of early western Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh. Close to the historic Block House.
