This cruise of the New York and New Jersey harbors will show the immense scale and complexity of local and global port activity.

Open House New York invites you for an afternoon cruise of the New York and New Jersey harbors to learn more about the immense scale and complexity of local and global port activity. Bethann Rooney, Director of the Port Department at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and a 30+ year veteran in the maritime industry, will guide us on the past, present, and future of the shipping industry in the New York and New Jersey harbors.

As the gateway to one of the most concentrated consumer markets in the world, the Port of New York and New Jersey is the busiest container terminal on the East Coast and second busiest in the country. From the first pier in 1659 through the establishment of the Port Authority in 1921, the wooden ships and cargo hooks of the past have now been replaced by computers and a landscape of gantry cranes. The tour will showcase container terminals and cargo infrastructure, along with iconic sites like the Lower Manhattan skyline and Statue of Liberty.

As our cities globalize and supply chains work to meet our on-demand needs, hear how the Port of New York and New Jersey will continue to serve the region with world-class infrastructure.

AIA CES credit (2.5 LU) is available for this program.
