Anchorage

             Anchorage is the northernmost major city in the United States and the largest community in North America north of the 60th parallel. With 291,826 residents in 2010 (and 380,821 residents within its Metropolitan Statistical Area, which combines Anchorage with the neighboring Matanuska-Susitna Borough), it is Alaska's largest city and constitutes more than 40 percent of the state's total population. Alaska has been requested to change its capital from Juneau to Anchorage several times, since Anchorage's population provides better accessibility. In 1974, Congress approved the move, and in 1976 it was decided that Willow would become the new state capital.
            The main objectives are Conoco-Phillips Building, The Mormon Temple, Earthquake Park, anchorage old city hall, Alaska Center for the Performing Arts , and the downtown.
