Fort Macomb is a 19th-century United States brick fort in Louisiana, on the western shore of Chef Menteur Pass.[1] It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The fort is adjacent to the Venetian Isles community, now legally within the city limits of New Orleans, Louisiana. This community was some miles distant from the city when first built and is still distant from the main developed portion of the city.
