 Abstract

This article tells the story of how city and the port have found a joint development strategy for Rotterdam’s CityPorts during the past decade. The process has resulted in more realistic, so-called ‘organic’ development plans, which mark the emergence of a new relationship between the port and the city. In essence, Rotterdam has produced new ways of thinking and acting with regard to the areas ‘between city and port’. Inside the so-called port city interface, the port authority and the municipality are at the forefront of reinventing the relationships between port and city for the twenty-first century.
