One of the oldest and most influential cities in America, Philadelphia has been a powerful and important east coast economy, and remains so today. The Port of Philadelphia (known as PhilaPort), located on the Delaware River, is over 300 years old and one of the largest freshwater ports and busiest shipping centers on the globe. The Philadelphia International Airport is the twentieth busiest in the nation and is soon to open new warehousing and logistics facilities to increase air-shipping capacity for the city. Two modern Class I railroads, Norfolk Southern and CSX, connect directly to PhilaPort, allowing for a smooth transition of cargo from ship to rail, and I-95 and other interstates provide convenient trucking lanes into and out of the city. With a more recent shift in its economic focus toward financial services, health education, biotechnology, telecommunications, food processing, and other areas, the city continues to rely on its ability to ship cargo in a cost effective way, and boasts the infrastructure and volume to do so efficiently.
