Harbor Cities of the World: A Collection of Photos of Harbor, Dock and Wharf Plans (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

While the immediate waterfront is utilized for ware houses, docks and wharves, the adjoining few blocks are, as a rule, occupied by wholesale business houses. Adjoining these again, the retail business section commences with its tall office buildings, stores, theatres and hotels. This holds true of nearly every harbor city, there being a potent reason for this.
