Title A name given to the resource Fort Trumbull Description An account of the resource New London’s geography as a deep-water harbor has shaped its maritime commercial and military history. Already in the late 18th century, the city was an important port of entry, and a defense fort was built on Mamacock. In the fervor and chaos of the American Revolution, New London was a major target for the British as a gateway city and privateering hub known for its wealth and patriotism. The small defense site on the Thames River was deemed inadequate protection against possible British invasion. By 1777, the renovated and expanded fortifications were renamed Fort Trumbull. The site was turned into a Connecticut State park in 2002. The historic structure and museum features reconstructions of the fort’s 19th century living quarters and a 1950s research laboratory.

Description An account of the resource In 1910, U.S. Coast Guard Academy Cadets sailed the Itasca (a tall ship similar to the ones seen in this postcard) to Fort Trumbull, claiming it for the Academy. When the school moved in 1932, Fort Trumbull became the official U.S. Coast Guard Station. Today, the base remains in the same location—a reminder of New London’s key role in the national security and maritime safety of our nation.

Title A name given to the resource Fort Trumbull Area Description An account of the resource The eastern corner of New London comprises a peninsula commonly referred to as the Fort Trumbell area. This peninsula became extremely relevant to the history of the United States as a whole in 2005 with the ruling of the Supreme Court in Kelo v. New London. The ruling determined that the "public use" provision of the "takings clause" of the 5th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution permits the use of eminent domain for economic development purposes that provide a public benefit. A private owner demolished 15 residential homes in line with a "comprehensive redevelopment plan" implemented by the city. However, after financial struggles he abandoned the site and it remains empty today in 2019.
