Description	Cities on the Great Lakes will be raised to the status of "ocean ports" when the great St. Lawrence Seaway is completed. Deepened waters will be able to accommodate huge ships carrying heavy cargoes all the way from the Atlantic to Duluth, Minnesota. This means new competition for eastern seaboard harbors like the port of Philadelphia, shown here in aerial view.
