Port Jervis, New York and Related Area Photographs
Fort Decker, a stone house built about 1760, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was burned during a 1779 Revolutionary War raid led by the famed British-educated Mohawk leader, Joseph Brant, and today serves as a museum for the Minisink Valley Historical Society. While there is no proof supporting the belief, local folklore holds that this building was also once the headquarters for John B. Jervis, principal engineer for the Delaware and Hudson Canal, after whom the city is named.
