Flashback Friday: the difference 60 years will make! Below is an image of the Port of Wilmington in 1964 juxtaposed against the Port of Wilmington today.
Our operations look much different in the present day as we now offer terminal facilities serving container, bulk, breakbulk, and ro-ro operations.
In the decades between these two images, our terminals have experienced substantial change and growth. Yet, evidence of the past remains in the form of stories, memories, and photographs like these, serving as reminders of our port’s legacy and rich history.
Do you have a memory or historical anecdote about the Port of Wilmington? We'd love to hear from you in the comments below!
