Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the change in Busan Port Pier No.1 from its construction time to present, and to find the meaning and value of the pier No.1 on the basis of its construction process and change factors. In this way, it is possible to shed light on the change of Busan port in the modern age and its historical meaning and value. Completely constructed in March 7, 1911, Busan Port Pier No.1 is comprised of a jetty and a landing pier as reclaimed land. On October 25, 1912, when a western-style steel-frame structure was built, the port had basic facilities. Through ‘the 2nd Busan Port Construction (1919-1929)’, various kinds of supplementary facilities were expanded. In 1937, the facilities related to railway were completely built. So the port was used as the passenger port for trade and railway transfer. During the Korean War, the facilities built under Japanese occupation remained and had been used mainly to transport Korean people overseas, war goods, and refugees. The Busan Port Pier No.1 had greatly changed since 1960. According to the government’s decision made to use the southern side of the pier No.1 on October 8, 1960, ‘Busan Cooperative Fish Market’ was opened on November 1, 1963. For this reason, Busan Port Pier No.1 lost its function of passenger transport and was used for trade and fish market. With the rapid economic development in the 1970s, the fish market had functioned international trade actively and ended up being relocated to Nambumin-dong in January 1973. When ‘the 1st stage development project of Busan Port(1974～1980)’ was established, a landing pier and an international passenger terminal were newly built in Busan Port Pier No.1 which was changed to the current status. The function of Busan Port(North Port) which had been used as a trade port until the mid 2000 was moved to Busan Jinhae New Port, and thereby Busan Port faced a new change. As such, Busan Port Pier No.1 has well showed a part of the change in Busan Port, which has been made for about 100 years since it was opened. It has its historic meaning and value as the place that has relevant port facilities left. Therefore, it is necessary to respect the discussion of the historic meaning and value of Busan Port Pier No.1 in the process of North Port Redevelopment Project.
