1994 Map of Anchorage A-8

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Anchorage and its expanding urban footprint dominate this mid-1990s landscape, illustrating the dense residential and commercial growth between the Knik Arm and the towering peaks of the Chugach. The city's critical role as an aviation and educational hub is clear, with major installations like the Anchorage International Airport, Merrill Field Airport, and the neighboring campuses of Univ of Alaska Anchorage and Alaska Pacific Univ. Further east, the Fort Richardson Military Reservation and Elmendorf Air Force Base occupy vast tracts, while the Alaska Railroad skirts the coastline toward the southern settlement of Potter. This survey provides a look at the transition from the structured grid of neighborhoods like Mountain View and Spenard to the protected wilderness of Chugach State Park and the tidal flats of the Anchorage Coastal State Wildlife Refuge.
