The American Dream is alive and well for many people, but the cost of living in a major metropolitan area has made the dream unobtainable for many more.
For those who want to purchase property near a major East Coast city but still want to avoid the higher cost of living, intermodal container carriers offer a solution. For both local and long-distance homeowners, these carriers provide excellent options for building homes away from home. As we can see from these two examples, container transport is an incredibly valuable process that helps make our lives much easier in so many ways.
The idea of a container terminal in the Port of Philadelphia is often a hot topic. Some people feel that Philadelphia was not built off of the maritime industry, while others feel it is necessary for the region's trade.Philadelphia may never be able to compete with Newark when it comes to container port facilities, but if we could reconstruct and reimaging our waterfront, it could make for an exciting new tourist attraction. Developing an intermodal container terminal as well as other logistics hub opportunities would help this dream become a reality.
