High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Fort Hoop was a settlement in the seventeenth century colonial province of New Netherland that eventually developed into Hartford, Connecticut. In 1623, the Geoctroyeerde Westindische Compagnie GWC, commonly known in English as the Dutch West India Company 1621-1793 of the United Netherlands Dutch Republic built a fortified trading house of the Roman Castra design with a praetorium, castra ways, and gates. Fort Hoop was located on the south bank of the Little River now Park River, a tributary river of the Versche or Fresh River (now the Connecticut River). The directors at Fort Orange now Albany and Fort Amsterdam now New York City had planned Fort Hoop to be the northeastern fortification and trading center of the GWC. Peter Minuit, Governor of the New Netherland, did not follow the line of building fortifications as in Roman design, possibly out of haste & lack of resources, poor leadership, or a combination of both.
