The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Buffalo District and the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation hosted a Feasibility Cost Sharing Agreement signing ceremony, September 20, 2019, at Old Fort Niagara, in Youngstown, NY.
Attendees included:

Under the Continuing Authority Program Section 14, Emergency Streambank and Shoreline Protection, alternatives will be looked at to protect Old Fort Niagara from Lake Ontario wave action.
The seawall along the north shoreline, where the Niagara River flows into Lake Ontario, has been eroding over the years, and this project would investigate methods to protect the “French Castle” built in 1726 and the North Redoubt, built in 1771.
