Does this qualify as a port district? I was suprised to find nothing on wikipedia about governments known as the "Port of ___". Cacophony 05:25, September 7, 2005 (UTC)
Hello Cacophony -- The purpose of a port district is to tax within the district to support port financial needs. The PANYNJ has sufficient resources that it does not need to assess or collect taxes to support its operations. Rhadow ( talk) 16:52, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
I see no mention of the controversy in the 1950s and 1960s of the increasing powers of the Port Authority. There was significant public debate about the authority, including whether it should be doing things like the World Trade Center real estate deal. This article needs significant expansion IMO. -- ChrisRuvolo ( t) 22:38, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

I would like to request a peer review of Port of Albany-Rensselaer from anyone who wishes to help out. Any comments and critique would be useful in attaining GA status. Thanks! Camelbinky ( talk) 23:29, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
Clearly I've paid the price for not living in the Tri-State area for the past 15 years, because I forgot that the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey still has it's own bus fleet, as you can see here, here and here. Why hasn't this been covered in any of the related articles? --------- User:DanTD ( talk) 14:14, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

I was having a discussion with another editor about the Port. I suggest that a full description of anything should appear only once in WP. There is an article on New York New Jersey Rail. No point in having a full description in Port of New York and New Jersey and Port Authority of New York and New Jersey too. The PA a governmental authority that has a broad portfolio. I think a carve out for the description of the harbor, its facilities, and its history is great. There's no reason to duplicate the full description of the Waterfront Commission of New York Harbor. By the same token, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey#Seaports should move into Port of New York and New Jersey. Waddaya think? Rhadow ( talk) 01:09, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
I added the WP:MERGE tag to Port Authority of New York and New Jersey#Seaports. A summary in Port Authority of New York and New Jersey#Seaports could point to Port of New York and New Jersey. Similar MERGE, Summary, and link updates are needed for Waterfront Commission of New York Harbor, Port of New York and New Jersey#ExpressRail, Port of New York and New Jersey#Car float and Cross Harbor Tunnel (two separate articles exist). Rhadow ( talk)
It is clear that the editor doesn't really understand the port is not the port authority, which is not a government authority, by the way. There is far from any detailed or dulicate description of the Port Authority or Waterfront Commission in the Port of New York and New Jersey article, just brief explanatory sentences and appropriate in-line links. There is also only a summary of the seaports. There is complex arrangement of ownership, lease agreements, regulation do not belong in the PANYNJ article, since the container and cargo ports are also public and privately owned. Better still that information could be expanded in the port article or the individual articles. The use of car floats in the port far proceeds the PANYNJ ownership of the NYNJ rail. Mention of that and the potential freight rail tunnel are essential to understanding of the port and port district and does not contain nearly the detailed information found in the separate articles. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to remove vital information from the Port of New York and Jersey article, also making any merge unnecessary. Djflem ( talk) 11:54, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
That said, a "trimming" of the seaports section in the PANYNJ as suggested would be OK. Djflem ( talk) 13:50, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
Hello Djflem -- My understanding is not the point here. Please criticize my suggestions, not me. The PANYNJ is most certainly a government agency with the authority to issue bonds and sponsor police forces. I agree that trimming Port Authority of New York and New Jersey#Seaports is a good idea. I'll wait for more comments before doing anything. Please think about what would improve the article. Rhadow ( talk) 13:57, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
Hello Djflem -- We are in violent agreement, then. It's just a matter of discussing changes beforehand, so no one is surprised. Rhadow ( talk) 16:41, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
It has been suggested that the section Port Authority of New York and New Jersey#Seaports be made more concise and information be merged and or shifted to Port of New York and New Jersey. Djflem ( talk) 14:52, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
Living in and reading about New York, I have never seen the Port Authority called "PANYNJ" anywhere except here. That acronym looks like internal bureaucratese. Everyone refers to it in brief as "the Port Authority". Should this article do so? Zaslav ( talk) 02:50, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
I wouldn't consider The New York Times "casual usage". And I wouldn't consider "never" to be "not that common". Zaslav ( talk) 08:37, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
