It is and that's why it's also likely growing in all those places globally. It grows and spreads from all centers of trade, markets and trade depots after all. It doesn't grow in natural harbors but as long as you're at positive stability those will turn into centers of trade too eventually.

That's interesting. Are you saying a province holding natural harbor modifier will have that modifier become center of trade eventually?

Indeed. An event was added for this in 1.18 :)

Awesome! Look like Boston might have a chance to become a CoT. It started out with Natural Harbor. Unfortunately, same can't be said for Manhattan province. IIRC, it had Hudson Estuary modifier. So no chance for New York City to become a center of trade within my colonial subject. :(

Not so fast :)
Panama—Important Natural Harbor, which is neither a Centre of Trade, nor an Estuary—has just became CoT in my game.

If you had read more carefully, I said Manhattan province had Hudson Estuary modifier. It is neither CoT or Important Natural Harbor. But I could be wrong. I was just recalling from my memory. It may have natural harbor instead but I am pretty positive it only had estuary modifier.
