Description

Whittier, Alaska, a town where nearly everyone lives in one building, is racing to adapt as tourism explodes—cruise ship passengers are doubling and a major Navy event looms—while battling traffic chaos through its single-lane tunnel that shares the road with trains. Residents complain about parking, confusing signs, and overused facilities, but new state land acquisition could unlock space to manage the surge. With mountains and water on all sides, Whittier is juggling charm and growth to keep up with what’s next.
