Last month, Anchorage Mayor Suzanne LaFrance held a naming contest to name the city’s various snowplow equipment. She announced the winners, as Must Read Alaska wrote about in this report, which features the growing outdoor-living community in downtown Anchorage:
Must Read Alaska has written about downtown vagrancy and about the elaborate greenbelt shantytowns popping up all over Anchorage.
Urban trails are unsafe and downtown streets are smeared with human excrement. At night, walkers must be careful to not stumble over bodies.
But at least we have fun names for the snowplows in Anchorage: The Berminator, Taylor Drift, Blizzard Wizard, Luke Sidewalker, and Bladey Gaga. For whatever reason, no one offered Duck-Duck, Here Comes the Truck.
In the same civic spirit, we bring you a chance to name the homeless sprawl of tents and tarps along the Glenn Highway across from Davis Park. It’s a scene that’s not on LaFrance’s radar but can be viewed by commuters every day.
Here are some photos of the growing shanty encampment and what it looked like Wednesday:
Suggestions that have come in already include “Camp Trashmore” and “Camp It’s Complicated.”
Put your suggestions below, but keep it clean, not trashy, like these tarps and stolen whatnot decorating the Glenn Highway.
