The dock is the northern loading point from which iron ore moves by rail to steel mills in the Pittsburgh area, operated by the Pittsburgh and Conneaut Dock Company, part of Canadian National. It was here, around 1900, that the Hulett ore unloaders were pioneered. Throughput has eased with the long decline of US steel.
