seamracer.wordpress.com: Within an hours’ drive from where I live is a notable fortress that once was a strategic part to the history of Midwestern America. Fort Ste. Anne de Chartres still stands today – albeit partially demolished by time, weather, and the nearby water of the Mississippi River when it floods (almost yearly) – with some portions rebuilt since the 1930s. However, the magazine house for the gunpowder is original and claims to be the oldest building in all of Illinois State, dating to 1750.
