Adrian J. Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) Ever since Liberty City Stories came out few things baffled me. One of them is Portland, since Callahan Bridge is apparently the first bridge connecting to Staunton Island why they would build the docks on a island that's cut off from the rest of the city? All the cargo coming in a then put on ferries again makes no sense, especially that those ferries don't look like they can accommodate 18 wheelers. Then there's the lift bridge to Shoreside, no ships would go under it because there's nothing to go to. All the ships would come from the Atlantic and be redirected around the city and back to Portland makes no sense. I know it's a fictional city but hey, it gets my brain working. What do you guys think? Edited March 7, 2020 by Adrian J. NewGuybj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that rail yard in Harwood extended to the docks and there was also a rail ferry? Maybe there was another bridge that got demolished so Callahan Bridge could be built?

Ray Carter Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 It would have made more sense if the Callahan Bridge was simply closed for renovations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
