The Port of Copenhagen

East of Larsens Plads, but on the western side of the chan­ nel, lies the “Kvsesthusbro“ (M .6 ), which is used by “Det Forenede Dampskibsselskab’s“ passenger and cargo ships engaged in service to most of the Danish ports. Practically all the inland, sea-borne goods traffic to and from Copen­ hagen is discharged and loaded here. Considerable improvements are about to be made to Kvsest- husbroen which will be widened and the depth of water along­ side increased. The estimated cost is 1,800,000 Kr. Having passed Kvaesthusbroen, the “Nyhavns Kanal“ (L . 6 ) leading to Kongens Nytorv ( L . 5 ) , lies on the western side and the “Kristianshavns Kanal“ (K. L .7 ) on the eastern side, both of these canals are used by fishing boats and small craft. On the east side are situated “Det Forenede Dampskibs Sel- skab“s “Islands Plads“ with berths for the company’s vessels

Kristianshavns Kanal with storage area and warehouses.
