El puerto de la bahía Elliot, en la ciudad de Seattle, es uno de los lugares más relevantes dentro del denominado Puget Sound, estuario localizado en el sector septentrional de la costa estadounidense del océano Pacífico. Desde este puerto se da salida a la importante producción industrial del estado de Washington.

Seattle, Washington

Like the neighboring city of Tacoma, Seattle took a gamble in the early 20th century, investing millions to create a public port corporation. The seaport, which celebrated its centennial in 2011, now directly accounts for more than 21,000 jobs; an estimated 135,000 jobs in Washington state result from the handling of containerized cargo at the port terminals.

The Port of Seattle is a port district that runs Seattle's seaport and airport. Its creation was approved by the voters of King County, Washington, on September 5, 1911, and authorized by the Port District Act. It is run by an elected five-member commission. The commissioners' terms run four years. In 2011, Sea-Tac Airport handled a record 32.8 million passengers[1] and the seaport division handled just over two million containers (TEUs), making it the 7th largest port in North America and the 57th largest in the world.[2] In 2011, over 885,000 cruise passengers passed through the port's facilities.[3]

Port activities generate 194,000 jobs in Washington state.[4]

The port has three operating divisions (Aviation, Real Estate and Seaport), as well as capital development and corporate divisions.[5]

Among its facilities are the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in SeaTac, Washington; the Shilshole Bay Marina; the Maritime Industrial Center and Fishermen's Terminal on Salmon Bay; cargo terminals and a grain elevator on Smith Cove; and numerous cargo terminals on Elliott Bay, Harbor Island, and the Duwamish Waterway. The Port of Seattle also controls recreational and commercial moorage facilities and two cruise ship terminals.
