The Associated Press

Three huge cranes have been delivered to a Port of Seattle terminal.

The 267-foot tall cranes were made in China by the ZPMC equipment company and delivered Wednesday by the heavy lift ship Zhenhua 23.

The cranes will be installed at Terminal 18, which is run by SSA Marine.

The port says the cranes can reach out 210 feet - able to handle the widest container ships in the world.
