Opening remarks for the Port of San Juan Blog.
It just occurred to me that the public would be interested in having up to date information on what is happening at the Port of San Juan. Maybe even outside of Puerto Rico.
The events here are of crucial importance to the residents of the island, a US territory with a population of nearly 4 million US citizens. The Port of San Juan is the island's principal port of entry for maritime commerce. It has been so since San Juan, the Capital City, was founded in its original location in 1508 and its current location in 1521. Yes, it was that far back. To give you an idea of how far ago that was....when Boston was being founded, San Juan had had a functioning City government for over a hundred years.
The first few posts will be designed to bring you up to speed as to what is going on, and the various controversies surrounding the most magnificent natural harbor in the Caribbean, and one of top 50 ports in the United States.
