Quay
A wharf, quay (, also ), staith, or staithe is a structure on the shore of a harbour or on the bank of a river or canal where ships may dock to load and unload cargo or passengers.

A pier, raised over the water rather than within it, is commonly used for cases where the weight or volume of cargos will be ...
