The Harbour & the Coho
A great city should work in perfect symbiosis with its natural surroundings, not distracting from them or blocking their beauty, but rather working harmoniously in such a way that both the natural structures—bays, mountains, forests—enhance the beauty of buildings, streets and walkways,and vice-versa, thereby giving the city its own identity. It also is part of being a good steward to the land that you were blessed with; this is the mark of good urban planning. I believe the harbour that greets visitors coming in on the ferries from the States is a perfect example of such symbiosis.
The Coho is the most important asset to the Port Angeles community. It has never missed a sailing in close to fifty years of operation. It makes Port Angeles an important jumping-off point for visitors to Victoria thereby bringing lots of tourism dollars.
