What I like most is the photo. Can anyone tell me where it was taken, assuming it's on the Ohio River? It doesn't look like any part of the river I'm acquainted with. From various landmarks, I assume it's Louisille, but that's just a semi-educated guess. I haven't been on the ground in Louisville in years. That's a deficiency I really, really want to correct.
Oh, here is the original story from the Columbus Dispatch.

Way back in the 1970s, if I recall correctly, Huntington WV was considered the nation's largest inland port. Then Pittsburgh expanded its "port" boundaries, then St. Louis, then Huntington. So now Cincinnati wants in on this game. Maybe Paducah should play and end it once and for all.

Construction of the hydroelectric power plant at the Meldahl Locks and Dam is about 80 percent complete.

That is looking west from Waterfront Park in Louisville. The George Rogers Clark (or 2nd St.) Bridge rises above the horizon, with the L&I Bridge in the distance. In the foreground are tall piles for the floating docks at the harbor, and part of the "Great Lawn" can be seen at lower left.
I like the way they gave the USACE a proper photo credit.
