Fairview: Where people make the difference
Make your voice heard!
Residents in the neighborhood of Fairview in Anchorage, AK,
are working to empower their neighbors to transform their
community. Join us today!
Get Involved!
Community residents are invited to participate in team building, workshops, networking, and neighborhood projects to make Fairview a safer, more connected, and vibrant neighborhood.
What's new:
Safe streets and walkable neighborhoods should be available to everyone in Anchorage. If you’ve seen the sidewalks in winter or heard about recent collisions and pedestrian deaths, you know that all to often Fairview gets left behind. It’s time to change that.
Learn more about our Reconnecting Fairview effort and get involved!
Through the lens of design, we’ll consider how creative solutions implemented in vibrant and vital neighborhoods like Fairview can shape Anchorage’s future.
We had a successful Anchorage Design Week from February 21-25, with various events around town. To see what we created together, visit our webpage here!
