Genabaris

Genabaris was a large coastal city in northernwestern Genabackis. The port cityGardens of the Moon, Chapter 3, UK MMPB p.97 was held by the Malazan Empire and was a main debarking point for imperial armies during the Genabackis campaign.Gardens of the Moon, Glossary, UK MMPB p.710 According to Paran, it was a thousand leagues from Pale, although this may have been a figure of speech.Gardens of the Moon, Chapter 3, UK MMPB p.99
Although a major port, the piers of Genabaris were not used to the huge heavy Malazan transports and creaked under the pull on the bollards. Supplies destined for the front lines would arrive from Seven Cities and be dealt with by supply clerks. Crates and cloth-wrapped bundles bore sigils which identified them.
Anomander Rake thought the Malazan conquest of the city had been to its betterment. He described the city as once being a "fetid sore" to which the Malazans had brought peace, reparation, law, and order. Only Nathilog had been worse. Now both cities could claim rivalry to Darujhistan.Memories of Ice, Chapter 18, US SFBC p.624
