BINGHAMTON, NY: in the Southern Tier
Binghamton is the county seat of Broome County, and sits at the confluence of the Susquehanna and Chenango Rivers roughly six miles north of the Pennsylvania line in the Southern Tier. It was once a major city in New York, but now is the 14th biggest city, and it clearly has seen better days. It currently is mostly kept afloat by Binghamton University (one of my alma maters) just outside the city. But enjoy this tour all around the city, and judge for yourself!

Endicott Gun Batteries at Fort Washington near Mount Vernon
Endicott Gun Batteries at Fort Washington national park near Mount Vernon
Prior efforts at harbor defense construction had ceased in the 1870s. Since that time the design and construction of heavy ordnance had advanced rapidly, including the development of superior breech-loading and longer-range cannon, making U.S. harbor defenses obsolete. In 1883, the Navy had begun a new construction program with an emphasis on offensive rather than defensive warships, and many foreign powers were building more heavily armored warships with larger guns. These factors combined to create a need for improved coastal defense systems.
The Endicott Era Defenses were constructed, in large part, during the years of 1890–1910 and some remained in use until 1945. Endicott Era Forts ushered the transition from mortar to concrete as a building material in response to the massive technological discoveries in arms and ordnance brought on by the American Civil War. Masonry walls shrouding hordes of smooth-bore cannon could no longer serve as a primary coastal defense mechanism, thus the Endicott Era Defenses were born.
Endicott Era Forts were constructed with concrete walls that concealed large, breech-loading rifled cannons mounted on disappearing carriages. These disappearing carriages allowed the new, rifled cannons to be raised above the walls, aimed, and fired, and then quickly moved back underneath the walls, becoming invisible from the sea. The fact that these cannons were breech loading is also not to be overlooked as a significant technological advancement, as it allowed for a much more rapid, accurate, and safe manipulation of artillery by its crew. This became even more important as warships of the era (such as the Spanish battleship Pelayo) were armored with steel plates, increasing the necessity of accurate, sustained fire in anti-ship warfare. These larger guns were complemented by a variety of other ordnance best explained[citation needed] by describing the armament of Fort Hancock, one of the main forts of the Harbor Defenses of Southern New York, part of which was the prototype by which all other Endicott Era forts were constructed.
