dc.description.abstract	Situated in north-eastern Gdynia and covering an area of 500 hectares, the commercial port complex is one of most interesting and architecturally rich complexes of modern industrial development. It was designed and constructed in just a dozen years or so in the 1920s and 1930s. The quality of technological and aesthetic solutions of industrial architecture of the Gdynia port became a symbol of technological progress and economic capabilities of that time. The construction project tantamount to building the Polish “gateway to the world” was a national priority, and for its architects the space of the newly-created port was a natural testing ground for their artistic creativity, where they could introduce new aesthetic and architectural trends.	en
