Needs of New York Harbor Deepening Benefit to Large Steamships
The Tribune reports progress in deepening the Ambrose Channel to about forty feet, aiding the entry and exit of transatlantic liners. Vessels like the Mauretania and Lusitania draw roughly thirty-seven and a half feet, suggesting not full cargo loads. Since ten years show larger ships, Liverpool’s new docks may be of note, yet their impact remains to be seen.
