This camera looks out over Town Square Park in the centre of Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska. It is a useful way to check how the downtown core looks and what the weather is doing before you head out. The live player is embedded from the owner's stream and runs in HD.

About the place

Anchorage sits on a bay of Cook Inlet, with mountains rising behind the city and the Chugach range visible on clear days. Its downtown grew from a tent settlement built during the railway construction of the early 1900s, and today it is the economic and cultural hub of the state. Town Square is one of the few open green spaces in the centre, a place where locals meet, walk their dogs and gather for events in the warmer months.

What you can watch

Depending on the view, you may see pedestrians crossing the square, traffic on the surrounding downtown streets and the changing light over the hills. Activity is usually busiest on weekday lunchtimes and during the summer evenings, when daylight lasts very long. Winter views can show snow on the ground and short, low-sun days, so the camera is a good way to judge conditions before going out.

Climate and getting around

Anchorage has a subarctic climate with cold winters and mild, long-daylight summers, and it is often cloudier than visitors expect. The best time to visit is late May through early September. Nearby cameras on the same downtown street grid include the 4th Avenue crossings at D and E Streets and G Street, as well as the Saturday market on 3rd Avenue, which is handy for seeing the centre from different angles.
