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.

Hyder Street

Future vision for Hyder Street, located in the Fairview neighborhood of Anchorage, AK

The Fairview community is working to transform the Ingra & Gambell Street couplet, which includes Hyder Street located between this corridor. For more information, visit the Reconnecting Fairview Project Library. Our long-term vision for Hyder Street is:

Hyder Street: Fairview Greenway

  • A signature community corridor that serves as an ecosystem for healing and transformation; prioritizes active transportation, gathering, art, open spaces, and connectivity; celebrates the cultures and lifeways of residents in Fairview; and attracts investment both large and small.

2026 Fairview Block Party outreach posters

Gambell Street Poster

Hyder Street Poster

Ingra Street Poster

These posters are designed for public input during Summer 2026 public outreach events. The images show a phased approach for road design with a near-term (within 5 years), mid-term (by 2040), and long-term (beyond 2040) scenario approach to each street cross-section. The designs build on each step toward a long-term vision for each roadway. 

Hyder Street scenarios

For the long-term, the approaches focus on these areas after a Fairview Bypass is constructed:

  • Gambell: Offer 2-way traffic to build a “Main Street” with flexible space for businesses, on-street parking, and/or transit facilities.
  • Hyder: Emphasize safety, community art and storytelling, and catalyze investment by balancing connectivity and subarctic design.
  • Ingra: Reduced traffic allows for 2-way traffic and reallocating space for pedestrians and bicyclists.

October 2025

The Fairview community is invited to weigh in on two design visions for Hyder Street — a corridor that today prioritizes vehicle throughput, but could become a neighborhood-scaled pedestrian boulevard.
