'''Fort McRee''' was a bent elliptical military fort located on [[Foster's Bank]], at the eastern tip of [[Perdido Key]], near [[Pensacola Pass]]. Significantly damaged during the [[Civil War]], the fort was essentially abandoned and left to the the elements. There are little or no remnants of the fort visible today.
