  • 灣仔公眾貨物裝卸區（1974年－2003年，簡稱灣仔貨物裝卸區），是香港一個已停用的公眾貨物裝卸區，位於香港島灣仔鴻興道，臨近維多利亞港，鄰近香港海底隧道奇力島出口、香港遊艇會、香港愛護動物協會及灣仔運動場，原是香港島一個重要的貨物起卸碼頭，現已停止運作。2005年世界貿易組織香港部長級會議，灣仔貨物裝卸區被利用作為供示威人士使用的示威區。 灣仔貨物裝卸區於1974年設立，是香港首個貨物裝卸區。由於灣仔填海工程第二期，灣仔貨物裝卸區的運作，已於2003年9月1日遷往柴灣貨物裝卸區，而西營盤及鰂魚涌亦有貨物起卸區，土地在灣仔填海工程落實後將有新發展。 為作為世貿部長級會議的示威區，政府已在灣仔貨物裝卸區靠海的一邊加建1米高的圍欄，避免示威人士墮海。 灣仔貨物裝卸區原址之後改建為灣仔海濱長廊，現在亦已關閉。 (zh)

The site has been earmarked under the Central and Wan Chai Reclamation project for the construction of a highway linking Central with Causeway Bay, aimed at easing traffic congestion along the northern coast of Hong Kong Island. As its name implies, the basin was formerly used as a public cargo handling area. Mid-stream operators transferred goods from ocean-going ships onto barges. They then sailed to the Wan Chai Cargo Handling Basin, where they transferred the goods onto trucks. In 2003, the basin's cargo-handling activities were relocated to the Chai Wan . The breakwater of the basin is currently used as a helipad by the Government Flying Service to replace the Central Helipad at Fenwick Street. * v * t * e (en)
