Modern logistics industry is the product of particular stage which social economy have developed to and the unceasing deepening social division of labor. It is in the foundation of the modern information technology, the internet development, as well as the widely uses of supply chain management pattern, merging certain traditional industries forms which they are modern transportation, storage and so on. It is one new industrial shape, it is a new industrial revolution, and is becoming the third profit source after the resources and manpower domains. Because of the launching of flexibility-production method, the time and space particularity of logistics active, the modern logistics taken as one new productive service industry in each link, creates time value and the spatial value in every link of production, transportation and sale. At the same time, it carries out the optimization of resources spatial disposition, and fast integrates into all industrial shapes with modern information technique. The modern logistics industry is changing the operational way of society and economy, finally, it will have affected the modern succession of urban economical function, the adjustment of industrial structure and the evolution of urban spatial structure.Undoubtedly, the rising of modern logistics industry will have affected great and particular significance to the development of modern port city. Following the thorough globalization and the high tide of worldwide industrial shift, the major port city at the key position of global supply chain plays more and more formidable roles in polar nucleus in the logistics economy. The superior location and scale transport infrastructure of harbour cause the harbour as the service base of international trade and the distribution center of cargo logistics to become the vital point of whole logistics chain and the service center of value-increasing most probably.In a word, these characteristics of modern logistics industries and the superior location of port city combine together, it has promoted the logistics industry's great progress in port city. In comparison with ordinary city, because of the correlation of port logistics, the modern logistics will have easily formed the more complete industrial system in the port city, easily gathered in the industrial space and construct the consummate network of logistics space, and have had profound influence to the spatial remakes of port city. The purpose of this article is utilizing the related theories of economy and city-geography. It takes great attention to the combination of qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis in the foundation of real diagnosis research, the combination of time evolution and space transfer. Finally, the article discusses and summarizes the mechanism that modern logistics industry gives impetus to the remake of port city spatial structure, the avenue of achieving and effect.
