collapsed dock and warehouse falling into port

The dock collapse at P&H that destroyed some of its warehouses. Terminals in the Intercity and North End areas constantly faced the danger of eroding foundation fill because they were all built on water lots.

port and superior elevator

A view of P&H, Agricore S, and UGG M taken from the water. The small P&H was somewhat of an outlier among the massive terminals in the Intercity, but it was one of the longest operating elevators in this area.
