All about the Port of New Orleans
New Orleans is a city like no other in the United States. Heavily influenced by French, Spanish, and African culture, this city owes its cosmopolitan vibe in part to the presence of its port, which was a major embarkation point for settlers from around the world. Located on the Mississippi River, the port still generates $100 million in revenue annually. And while its main business is cargo shipping, cruise ship travelers make up a significant portion of that revenue.
