overview : In 1965 the Fort Brewerton Historical Society was formed to collect and preserve our local history. The reconstruction of the first settler's block house known as Oliver Steven's Block House was completed in 1778. Built of logs, it is based on the original design of the building, utilizing the bricks recovered from the rubble which Steven had himself taken from the ruined fort.
