San Francisco breaks ground on new cruise ship terminal

San Francisco officials broke ground Tuesday on the city’s new cruise ship terminal at Pier 27, a site that will also be used during the upcoming America’s Cup races.
Mayor Ed Lee said construction can begin on the site because city supervisors last week approved the environmental impact report for the terminal and 2013 America’s Cup.
The plan for Pier 27 calls for an existing shed to be largely demolished. The America’s Cup will then use the site to house its America’s Cup Village, a gathering place where race fans can view the tournament, shop and eat.
After the conclusion of the America’s Cup in 2013, the city will take over Pier 27 and complete the new cruise ship terminal.
