If and when we ever get by the Covid crisis in the world, I for one think this proposal for a post Covid project would be super. Whittier is very close to Anchorage and in fact has been one of the two major cruise ship ports for our city for decades (Seward is the other one). I realize that the few down there in Whittier with negative assessments of the new dock are a factor. But in my opinion, this is to be expected, some of those folk want to be left as is, you know, "I got mine, the heck with anybody else".
Whittier is located in the northwest corner of Prince William Sound. I was born and raised on the Sound. In the southeast corner of it.
