New York City Economic Development Corporation’s PortNYC develops the City’s freight and passenger transportation infrastructure to strengthen the region’s economic growth. PortNYC facilities include marine cargo terminals, rail facilities, cruise terminals, ferry landings, active maritime piers, vessel berthing opportunities, and aviation facilities within New York City’s five boroughs. Marine Cargo Terminals New York City’s ports are America’s gateway to the largest and wealthiest consumer market in the United States. PortNYC supports the local economy by enabling firms to bring goods to market by vessel, one of the most efficient modes of freight transportation. Approximately 400,000 containers move through New York City’s seaports annually, and recent infrastructure upgrades to the city’s marine cargo terminals will allow more than a million tons of cargo to arrive by water instead of truck. The City promotes and incentivizes the maritime industry by maintaining and leasing these facilities and designating them Significant Maritime and Industrial Areas. CARGO FACILITIES • Global Container Terminal—New York (containers, break-bulk, and ro-ro), Staten Island • Red Hook Container Terminal (containers, break-bulk, and ro-ro), Brooklyn • South Brooklyn Marine Terminal (break-bulk, ro-ro, and project cargoes), Brooklyn Global Container Terminal on Staten Island is • 25th Street Freight Pier (aggregate), Brooklyn the city’s largest deep-sea marine facility.

    ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENTOF PARKS BOROUGH OF THE BRONX CITY OF NEW YORK JOSEPH P. HENNESSY, Commissioner HERALD SQUARE PRESS NEW YORK DEPARTMENT OF PARKS BOROUGH OF 'I'HE BRONX January 30, 1922. Hon. John F. Hylan, Mayor, City of New York. Sir : I submit herewith annual report of the Department of Parks, Borough of The Bronx, for 1921. Respect fully, ANNUAL REPORT-1921 In submitting to your Honor the report of the operations of this depart- ment for 1921, the last year of the first term of your administration, it will . not be out of place to review or refer briefly to some of the most important things accomplished by this department, or that this department was asso- ciated with during the past 4 years. The very first problem presented involved matters connected with the appropriation for temporary use to the Navy Department of 225 acres in Pelham Bay Park for a Naval Station for war purposes, in addition to the 235 acres for which a permit was given late in 1917. A total of 481 one- story buildings of various kinds were erected during 1918, equipped with heating and lighting systems. This camp contained at one time as many as 20,000 men, who came and went constantly. AH roads leading to the camp were park roads and in view of the heavy trucking had to be constantly under inspection and repair. The Navy De- partment took over the pedestrian walk from City Island Bridge to City Island Road, but constructed another cement walk 12 feet wide and 5,500 feet long, at the request of this department, at an expenditure of $20,000.
