The Waterfront is a section of Port Charles.

Between 2010-12, the waterfront set was renovated.

In 2014, the waterfront district was shown to be severely deteriorated. ELQ created the Waterfront Revitalization Project, with new jobs for the community to redevelop the area. The project unfortunately ran out of funding and was never completed.

As its name suggests, Port Charles is a major port. The Waterfront district has been under the control of Sonny Corinthos for over a decade, though rival gangs have tried to move in on his territory, such as Lorenzo Alcazar, the Ruiz brothers, and others. Bobbie's, a local eatery, is located in this area and the Elm Street Pier is also located here. Rick Webber rented a cottage for him and Monica Quartermaine during their affair in this area. It was here they were stalked by Alan Quartermaine who was tried to kill them. Majority of the Port Charles waterfront is owned by the Pride-Philips Company, which was given to Courtney Matthews as a thank you from a woman whose life she saved. Courtney later sold Pride-Philips to Lorenzo Alcazar.

Elm Street is a poorer district within the city and is located near The Waterfront. It is notable for being the place where one of the city's most famous and flamboyant residents, Luke Spencer, grew up. Luke's sister, Bobbie Spencer, owned a restored brownstone here, which became the residence of several Port Charles citizens. Alan Quartermaine and Mike Corbin used this district of Port Charles to meet up with prostitutes while fighting addictions. Maxie Jones was almost raped here after buying hydrocodone for Lucky Spencer. Robert Scorpio was beaten up by Lorenzo Alcazar's enforcers for not revealing the location of Skye Quartermaine, who was pregnant with his child at the time.

Fisherman Village is The Waterfront development constructed by mobsters in the "Tumble Dry" money laundering scam. Dan Rooney, Commissioner of Waterfront Development, tried to oppose the construction due to the shoddy construction plans, but was silenced in an "accident" arranged by Mr. Big (Co-Police Chief Burt Ramsey).

The Waterfront Promenade houses the popular coffee shop Perks, which serves Corinthos Coffee.

The B/N Department Store is located somewhere in this area. Pier 55 is where the launch for Spoon Island is located. Many high level Port Charles citizens meet on the Elm St. Pier daily.

The Waterfront is also a popular place for jogging - with the Bellweather Steps providing a spectacular view of the harbor. It's also the location of the Polar Bear Plunge charity event.

There are 57 piers on The Waterfront where many events happen including disaster and crime:

In February 1991, many Port Charles citizens protested the arrival of the freighter S.S. Tracy owned by the Quartermaine family. The boat sank on arrival in the middle of Port Charles Harbor, unleashing toxic chemicals and causing an environmental disaster.

In 2008, Alexis Davis and Sam McCall are attacked here by the Text Message Killer.

On March 17, 2008, one of the warehouses on the docks, an abandoned cannery, exploded. Sonny met with Claudia Zacchara to return Johnny to her. She arrived, and got on the phone with an ally to try and peace with them and Sonny. Meanwhile, Trevor Lansing and sniper stood on a loft in the warehouse, poised to shoot Claudia. Ric Lansing and Marianna Erosa were in another part of it, trying to cover the dead body of Randy. Carly finally finds Michael, where he confesses to shooting Kate Howard. They began to leave and go home. Meanwhile, a bomb is slowly ticking away. Right as the sniper pulls his trigger, the bomb goes of, and an explosion rips through the building. Everyone survives the event, but Carly miscarries her baby. Soon after the Docks became the site of a fake prescription drug ring headed up by Jerry Jacks. The ring produced placebos that claimed at least one life; a female heart patient. Matt Hunter was the prime suspect, but the extent of his involvement cleared. Andrei Karpov had a cargo ship, Odyssey, docked in the harbor.

When the Russian mob invaded PC in 2008 various events occured here including: Andrei Karpov stabbing Sonny and throwing him into the harbor with weights tied to his ankles. Carly jumped in and saved him just in time. Weeks later, Sonny killed Karpov here. In late December, Sasha Donev was shot and killed by a sniper here. In early January 2009, a brainwwashed Drew Cain blew up Sonny's latest cargo shipment. In 2011, Shawn Butler stops a bomb from going off at the Waterfront later Dante Falconeri is shot here.
