Port of Seattle

Major Port of the PACIFIC NORTHWEST

LOCATION HARBOR • RESOURCES - CLIMATE SCENERY AGGRESSIVE SPIRIT

THE PORT OF SEATTLE

SHORTEST AND MOST DIRECT NOUTE TO THE UNITED STATES

The Nearest Pacific Port to the

Oriental Shipper

That this port has led other Pacific Coast porta in foreign commerce values for many years is due in a large measure to the fact that Sentile is situated on the shortest trade route to the Far East. By a study of the world's globe, it will be found that the Seattle route follows, the great circle close to the Aleutian Islands, which is the shortest route across the Pacific by several hundred miles. During the war, when freight and charter rates were high, Seattle jumped very quickly in the lead of all other Pacific Coast ports.
