| Description | This location was highly contested during the French and Indian War of 1754-1763. The French built a fort here in 1753, and repulsed a British attack in 1755 (Braddock's Defeat). Eventually the French had to destroy Fort Duquesne to prevent it from falling into English hands; the English and colonials completed the larger Fort Pitt on this location in 1761. |
