alt Hacker NewsThe article is worth reading if you aren't familiar (I wasn't).
It's the Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel in Whittier, Alaska. It was built during WWII and opened up Anchorage to overland travel. It seems almost primitive compared to interstate hwy tunnels.
The town is pretty wild too. Well, in a not wild sort of way - at least in winter.
It's one thing to read most residents live in the same apartment building. For me what really brought it home was seeing for sale flyers on the bulletin board in the coffee shop: "For sale: a table. Questions see Bob in apt 23".
The sight of an indoor playground complete with swing set was fun too.
