Coverage here runs across Duluth city hall and the St. Louis County board, Duluth Public Schools and the shipping, health care and tourism employers that anchor the local economy. From Canal Park and Park Point to Chester Park, Congdon Park and Denfeld, neighborhood reporting extends through the city and into Carlton County and Douglas County where a story crosses the line. The Port of Duluth-Superior's role as the western terminus of the St. Lawrence Seaway makes Great Lakes shipping volumes, grain exports and bulk commodity movements recurring economic subjects in local coverage. Lake Superior's influence on the city's climate, tourism appeal and waterfront development is the environmental and geographic condition that runs beneath the widest range of Duluth's civic and planning discussions.
