Royal Caribbean, Goldbelt to explore co-developing new port in Juneau, Alaska

Goldbelt Incorporated, the urban Alaska Native, for-profit corporation of Juneau, announced that it is partnering with Royal Caribbean Group to explore co-developing a new port “aimed at strengthening the city’s infrastructure while improving traffic congestion downtown and enhancing the local and visitor experience.” The agreement between Goldbelt and Royal Caribbean Group has named the Port of Tomorrow as developer alongside integrated design-builder Turnagain Marine. The facility is projected for completion during the 2027 Alaska cruise season. “Goldbelt has long sought to establish a cruise terminal and destination centered around Tlingit history on the backside of Douglas Island. We look forward to the prospect of bringing this sustainable, culture-rich cruise ship terminal to life in partnership with Royal Caribbean Group, providing community solutions to local transportation and economic development issues,” stated McHugh Pierre, President & CEO of Goldbelt, Inc.
