About Anchorage, Alaska

Anchorage is a city of 291,247 people at the head of Cook Inlet, on the land between Knik Arm and Turnagain Arm. On May 15, 1778, Captain James Cook dropped anchor here with HMS Resolution and named a nearby stream Ship Creek. The spot later became Anchorage because another Anchor Point already lay to the south, near Homer. By 1911 the Whitney and St. Clair families were living at the mouth of the creek.

In 1914 Frederick Mears and the Alaska Engineering Commission chose Ship Creek as the port for building the Alaska Railroad, because its water was deep enough for barges and small ships. A tent city grew up around the railroad headquarters. The government then mapped a town site on higher ground to the south, and owners could lose their land if caught breaking the liquor laws. Residents voted in 1915 to call the town Alaska City, but the territorial government kept the old name. Anchorage was incorporated on November 23, 1920, and the railroad was finished in 1923.

  • Dena'ina countryFinds at Beluga Point, along Turnagain Arm, show Alutiiq people reached Cook Inlet by kayak about 5,000 years ago. Around 500 AD the Dena'ina Athabaskans came through the mountain passes. Their year moved with the seasons: summers were for fishing the streams, early fall was the time they went after Dall sheep, mountain goats and moose, and winters were spent close to the trading routes.
  • Airfields and Army postsPlanes first used the firebreak south of town, now the Delaney Park Strip, which residents also played golf on. Clearing for Merrill Field began in 1929, and it served as the main airport until Anchorage International Airport replaced it in 1951. Elmendorf Air Force Base and Fort Richardson went up in the 1940s and drove the city's economy until the Prudhoe Bay oil find of 1968.
  • The Good Friday earthquakeOn March 27, 1964, a magnitude 9.2 quake shook Anchorage for nearly five minutes and killed 115 people. The glacial silt under the city turned soft, and in the Turnagain neighborhood dozens of homes that stood 250 to 300 feet above sea level dropped to sea level. Broadcaster Genie Chance stayed on KENI for almost 24 hours, steering help to where it was needed and reuniting families. Rebuilding filled the rest of the 1960s.
  • The capital that stayed putRobert Atwood of the Anchorage Times pushed to move the state capital from Juneau. Voters said no in 1960 and 1962 but said yes in 1974. Fearing too much power in Anchorage, they chose a new site near Willow, about 70 miles north, in 1976. In 1978 they defeated the nearly $1 billion bond to build it, and the capital never moved.
  • One municipality since 1975In September 1975 the City of Anchorage joined the Greater Anchorage Area Borough, which took in Eagle River, Girdwood and Glen Alps. The new Municipality of Anchorage covers almost all of Chugach State Park.
