Fort Howe was British fort built in Saint John, New Brunswick during the American Revolution.

It was erected shortly after the American siege in 1777 to protect the city from further American raids.

The 18th and 19th century British Army fortification stood at the mouth of the St. John River where it empties into the Bay of Fundy. A replica blockhouse has been constructed approximately 250 metres to the northeast of the original structure.

The fort initially held eight cannons, barracks for 100
