Fort Macomb Fort Macomb is a 19th - century fortress in Louisiana , on the western shore of Chef Menteur Pass . The fort is adjacent to the Venetian Isles community , now legally within the city limits of New Orleans , Louisiana , although some miles distant from the city when first built and still a considerable distance from the main developed portion of the city . History . Chef Menteur Pass is a water route from the Gulf of Mexico to Lake Pontchartrain and the lakeshore of New Orleans . ( The other route is the Rigolets ; both straits connect Pontchartrain to the Gulf via Lake Borgne . ) An earlier fort at the site was called Fort Chef Menteur . The current brick fort was built in 1822 , and renamed Fort Wood in 1827 , with its current name being given in 1851 . The fort was occupied by a Confederate States of America garrison starting on 28 January 1861 early in the American Civil War , and retaken by the Union the following year . In 1867 the barracks caught fire , after which the fort was largely abandoned . It was decommissioned in 1871 . The fort and its land are now owned by the State of Louisiana . While some efforts were made to open it to limited tourism in the late 20th century , the decaying condition of the fort was judged too hazardous for public visits . The similar but better preserved Fort Pike some away at the Rigolets has been the regional example of a coastal fort open to visitors . A portion of the fort ' s old moat has been turned into a canal as part of a small marina . Unfortunately , the wakes from incoming and outgoing boats is wearing away the outer wall of the fort and accelerating the structural damage .
