Corey Street and Ft. Miami Neighborhood


Ft. Miami, today, is a quiet park
The Cottage at 819 Corey Street was built during the canal era in the late 1800s or early 1900s.

Bounded on one side by the Ft. Miamis National Memorial, the earthworks of the 1794 English fort on the River Road between Michigan and Corey Streets, and bounded on the other side by the Anthony Wayne Trail, a major thoroughfare that was first an ancient Indian trail, then the old Wabash and Erie canal, and finally a modern highway, the Corey Street neighborhood has plenty of history for those willing to look below the surface of modern streets and houses.
