Fort Taber is a 50-acre waterfront park that provides over a mile of ocean frontage located on the southern peninsula of the city which projects into Buzzards Bay. Fort Taber's existing playground is getting an upgrade starting September 2026! In addition to historic Fort Taber, built between 1857 and 1871 as part of the nation’s sea coast defense system, this project will revitalize an existing playground that needs upgrades.
