| Alaskan husky | The Alaskan husky is not so much a breed of dog as it is a type or a category. It falls short of being a breed in that there is no preferred type and no restriction as to ancestry; it is defined only by its purpose, which is that of a highly efficient sled dog. That said, dog drivers usually distinguish between the Alaskan husky and “hound crosses”, so perhaps there is informal recognition that the Alaskan husky is expected to display a degree of northern dog type. (references) | ||
| Alaskan Independence Party | The Alaskan Independence Party is a political party in the U.S. state of Alaska. Its most well-known plank is its call for a vote on secession, which they claim should have been offered as an option in the plebiscite on statehood under international law.

| Alaskan Way Seawall | The Alaskan Way Seawall is a seawall which runs for 7,000 feet along the Elliott Bay waterfront southwest of downtown Seattle from Bay Street to S. Washington Street. It was built to provide level access to Seattle's piers and supports the Alaskan Way Viaduct and Alaskan Way itself, which is a surface street. Completed in 1934, the seawall was built on top of wood piling which has significantly deteriorated due to wood eating gribbles. In addition, everything behind the seawall from Alaskan Way to Western Avenue is built on top of fill, making for a very dangerous situation should a large earthquake occur. The viaduct itself is particularly at risk; experts give a 1-in-20 chance that it could be shut down by an earthquake within the next decade, and so plans are underway to replace both seawall and viaduct. The seawall replacement is estimated to cost $800 million US dollars. See Alaskan Way Viaduct for more information on the replacement project. (references) | ||
| Alaskan Way Viaduct | The Alaskan Way Viaduct is an elevated section of Washington State Route 99 that runs along the Elliott Bay waterfront in Seattle's Industrial District and downtown. It is the smaller of the two major traffic corridors through Seattle, carrying up to 110,000 vehicles per day. Interstate 5, the city's other major traffic corridor, handles about three times as many vehicles. The viaduct runs from S. Nevada Street in the south to the entrance of Belltown's Battery Street Tunnel in the north. (references) | ||
