Visiting Fort Pike

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Fort Pike is one of a series of defensive fortifications built around the city of New Orleans, Louisiana following the British invasion of the United States during the War of 1812.  Completed in 1819, it is situated on the Rigolets, an inland strait which connects Lake Borgne to Lake Pontchartrain.   Abandoned in 1890, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.  Seen from above in this drone video by Bumble Bee Productions, Fort Pike "played the role" of Fort Sumter in the 2013 sci fi film G.I. Joe: Retaliation.
