From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For other uses of the word "quay", see Quay (disambiguation).
A quay, pronounced 'key,' 'kay,' or 'kway' is a wharf or bank where ships and other vessels are loaded. The word is commonly used in Britain and Australia. Its French language counterpart Quai is common in francophone countries, but it is rather rare in everyday usage elsewhere.
In Paris, it refers to the borders of the river Seine, together with its expressways and bouquinistes (bookstalls).
