The most historic view, the most important view on Fort Monroe is to the north and east. A clear line of fire was needed to be maintained in order to allow for the firing of cannons from the casemates and other guns from the tops of the Fortress walls. The Wherry Quarter should be maintained as open land and become part of Fort Monroe National Monument to insure that this view will be restored and maintained in the future.
