Baltimore to Officially Launch Post-Panamax Cranes Oct. 30

The Port of Baltimore will officially open four new 40-story post-Panamax cranes for operation at the Port's Seagirt Terminal Oct. 30, two years before the Panama Canal widening is complete, it said. As the final step in the $105 million expansion at the Port of Baltimore, the fully operational cranes will allow the Port to be one of just two East Coast ports to begin receiving supersize container ships, it said.
