South Side of Pier No. 5, North Side Pier No. 4, 1960
Scope and Contents
Shows the south side of pier No. 5 and the north side of pier No. 4. These piers can load up to four ships at a time, each ship having a capacity of 10,000 to 25,000 tons. Last year we dumped about 18,000,000 tons of coal on these piers and, I understand, the carrier plants to build new coal piers to handle ships with a capacity of 45,000 tons. The ship in this photo is the General Guisan.
