Fulton Street is named after Robert Fulton (born in Mifflin County, Pennsylvania on November 14, 1765; died February 24, 1815), who was a U.S. engineer and inventor widely credited with developing the first commercially successful steam-powered steamboat. He also designed a new type of steam warship, and in 1800 was commissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte to design Nautilus, which was the first practical submarine in history.
