New Warehouses for Kunsan Harbor
Caption Description
Kunsan, one of Korea's most important ports, is so silted that ships must unload part of their cargo outside the harbor before coming into the docks. Goods are loaded onto lighters, transferred to oxcarts or A-frames, loaded into box-cars or taken to remote warehouses and then handled in the reverse manner for rail shipment out of the port. Three large warehouses were destroyed during the fighting. As part of its program aimed at rehabilitating the port area UNKRA undertook the reconstruction of the warehouses, which lie between the docks and the railroad tracks, enabling goods to be unloaded directly into the warehouse and thence to be transferred onto the trains. Here, a freighter, already half-unloaded outside the harbor, discharge its remaining cargo at the dock. The steel structures, at right, are movable bridge-works which rise and fall with the tide, spanning the heavily silted area which would make unloading impossible. [No exact date]
