Abstract：With the changing of the global supply-demand relationship and the use of container transportation technology, the relationships between ports and cities have become more complicated and subtler than at any time.
Adopting the system theory method, this article analyzes the life-circle pattern of city-port interactive development from the view of port-city associative degree, city industrial structure, spatial structure of port-city. The authors hold that the life-circle pattern of city-port interactive development can be classified into four stages that is the period of rudiment, the period of bulge, the period of maturation, the period of amalgamation and ruin. According to this model, there are different features at every stage. By analysing the concerned statistics from 1990 to 2005, it can be seen that there are three development stages of Nanjing city-port interactive development, that is the period of rudiment, the period of bulge and the early period of maturation. In the future, with the changing of some circumstances, such as the changing of industrial structure of Nanjing, the changing function of Nanjing port, the intense competition between the ports all around, the administrative system of port and the development of international trade, Nanjing city-port interactive development system will shift to the period of maturation.
