Port V Facility Shore and Bank Protection Project

The Port V Facility of the National Association of Naval Veterans is located on the shorefront in Bridgeport.

The project consists of a stone retaining wall and stone slope protection constructed by the Corps over a 250-foot stretch of the shoreline. It protects the naval facility by limiting erosion caused by wave action. Port V is a small project and was built under Section 14 of the Corps’ Continuing, Authorities Program.

Construction took place between March-June 1984 and cost $160,000.
