LAI Baltimore Maryland Port Administration speaker: Baltimore receives first super-sized tanker ship through wider Panama Canal
July 20, 2016
The LAI Baltimore Chapter Summer Outing on July 20, 2016 was aboard the Historic Skipjack Sigsbee for a sail boat tour leaving from the Baltimore harbor with a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide speaker, Jill Lemke, Manager, Strategic Planning and Special Projects, of the Maryland Port Administration.
There is significant new development in place, and much more planned, along Baltimore’s waterfront. In addition, the Port of Baltimore has received much press because, “Last month’s opening of wider and deeper shipping lanes in the Panama Canal is expected to result in more demand for industrial leasing later this year and in years to come in the Baltimore area, a new report says. Baltimore is one of three U.S. ports on the East Coast that has been fitted with larger equipment to receive goods from the larger ships that will utilize the expanded canal lanes that opened in June 26.” The day prior to our Summer Outing boat tour the Baltimore Port received the first super-sized tanker ship to have passed through the opening of wider and deeper shipping lanes in the Panama Canal.
