Rogers Park: Benson & New Seward Hwy
Anchorage lies at the head of Cook Inlet in south-central Alaska, a position that has made it the state’s principal transport and commercial centre. The city occupies the traditional homeland of the Dena’ina Athabascan people, whose place names and cultural presence remain integral to the region. Modern Anchorage began in 1914 as a construction camp for the Alaska Railroad; it grew into Alaska’s largest city and a key service centre for communities across the state. To the east, the Chugach Mountains form a boundary to its urban spread, while Cook Inlet opens southwestward to the Gulf of Alaska. Museums, Indigenous arts and an active downtown give this expansive city a distinct civic core among its neighbourhoods.

Built around the homelands of Indigenous peoples and later linked by fur-trade and mining routes, Alaska grew into the largest state in the United States. These coordinates lie in the Interior, where the Tanana River crosses a country of broad lowlands, boreal forest and long winters. Alaska extends from the Gulf of Alaska to the Arctic Ocean and includes Denali, North America’s highest mountain. Athabascan communities remain central to the living cultural fabric of the interior. The Alaska Railroad reached Fairbanks in 1923, helping connect this remote region with the coast. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Interior Alaska.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
