The Park Strip is a nice little park in downtown Anchorage to hang out with friends or play some soccer , football , or frisbee . Park is dog friendly too. There are a few homeless people that live there

Charles Koch

Great views of downtown and the mountains . Grab a hot beverage and find a quiet spot .

Delaney Park Strip in downtown Anchorage was originally built as the city 's first airstrip and used as a fire barrier to protect the city in case of major fire.
