Excerpt from The Problem of Greater New York and Its Solution
The citizens Of New York have many problems, changing in form and degree with each new generation, but the City, which con tains the citizens and outlasts the generations, must ever deal with the one fundamental factor Of its existence; New York is a sea-port.
New York's original site was fixed by its harbor its growth has been dependent upon its harbor. Could New York be conceived as losing its harbor, it would straightway dwindle to a second or third-rate city. While no such danger can ever menace New York, it is no less true that any limitation Of its harbor facilities strikes a serious blow at the welfare Of the City - which is to say, at the welfare Of the citizens.
We purpose to show that such a limitation now exists, that it is rapidly becoming menacing and that with it are closely associated some Of our most serious civic problems.
