    From this spot at the northern tip of Delaware City, a historic waterfront town in New Castle County, you get fantastic views out over the Delaware River to Fort Delaware on Pea Patch Island. This spot is also right next to the eastern terminus of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal and is the location of the Forts Ferry Crossing to Fort Delaware. During the Civil War, the Union used the fort as a prison for Confederate prisoners of war.
