[[Liberty Island#Fort Wood|Fort Wood]], now the base of the [[Statue of Liberty]] in [[New York City]], is a [[star fort]] in the form of an irregular 11-point star.<ref>{{citation|title=The Hudson River Guidebook|first=Arthur G.|last=Adams|publisher=[[Fordham Univ Press]]|year=1996|isbn=9780823216796|page=66|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=KIkHuzvZTGYC&pg=PA66}}.</ref>

The [[Topkapı Scroll]] contains images of an 11-pointed star [[Girih]] form used in [[Islamic art]]. The star in this scroll is not one of the regular forms of the hendecagram, but instead uses lines that connect the vertices of a [[hendecagon]] to nearly-opposite midpoints of the hendecagon's edges.<ref>{{citation|url=http://archive.bridgesmathart.org/2009/bridges2009-147.pdf|title=Bridges 2009: Mathematics, Music, Art, Architecture, Culture|first=B.

An 11-point star-shaped cross-section was used in the [[Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster]], for the core of the forward section of the rocket (the hollow space within which the fuel burns). This design provided more surface area and greater thrust in the earlier part of a launch, and a slower burn rate and reduced thrust after the points of the star were burned away, at approximately the same time as the rocket passed the [[sound barrier]].<ref>{{citation|title=Encyclopedia of Space and Astronomy|first=Joseph A.|last=Angelo|publisher=[[Infobase Publishing]]|year=2009|isbn=9781438110189|page=511|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=VUWno1sOwnUC&pg=PA511}}.</ref>
