  • A ship is loaded with containers in the Port of Antwerp, Belgium. Nearby, construction has recently began for what will be the world's largest ship lock, the Deurganckdock lock. To make way for the ever expanding needs of the port to be able to handle the world's largest ships, the lock will be as wide as a 19-lane highway. In the construction three times as much steel will be used as was needed for the Eiffel tower, and the amount of concrete will be enough for a building 35 floors high and covering an area the size of a football field.

  • Deserted houses, covered in graffiti, are boarded up in Doel, near the Port of Antwerp, Belgium. Nearby, construction has recently began on what will be the world's largest ship lock, the Deurganckdock lock, which will be able to handle the world's largest ships. The few remaining residents of the village of Doel have been battling the government for years to save their village from port expansion. Doel is slated for demolition by 2020 to make way for another high volume lock known as the Saeftinghedok.
