Scope Note: Structures built generally parallel to the shoreline so that vessels may moor alongside to receive or discharge cargo or passengers. For similar loading and unloading places built to extend from the shoreline out over water, use "piers (marine landings)"; if such places are artificial solid banks or shoreline extensions built parallel to the shoreline, use "quays."
