American Waterfront is a "port-of-call" (themed land) at Tokyo DisneySea in the Tokyo Disney Resort. It represents the Northeastern seaboard of the United States in the early 20th century, and features two themed areas, an Old Cape Cod section, and a New York Harbor section with an elaborate backstory.
The American Waterfront is themed to resemble a New York City enlivened by new immigrants, and the New England fishing village of Cape Cod.
New York is depicted as a bustling city at the end of the Industrial Age, complete with an elevated railway, a classic American Theater and a harbor displaying a large range of boats, including the massive S.S. Columbia. This city's backstory revolves around the wealthy Harrison Hightower III, whose power grew stronger amid New York, as one can guess seeing his S.S.

Cape Cod offers a slower pace and the opportunity to stroll leisurely along its quaint streets.
