Abstract:

Port authorities in the United States have traditionally focused their resources on the development of marine terminals and related infrastructures for water-borne commerce. In recent years, forces within the port industry and the communities they serve have directed many port authorities to allocate land and capital resources toward the development of a broad range of land uses unrelated to waterborne commerce. The resulting increase in competition between maritime and non-maritime uses for limited waterfront land resources is a source of ongoing debate with the port industry.
