Alaska Botanical Garden Masterplan, Anchorage, AK

The master plan for the Alaska Botalincal Garden will guide the phased development of the 110-acre site in Anchorage, Alaska. The master plan delineates the native plant communities to be preserved and guides the development of display and demonstration gardens on less sensitive lands near the visitor center.

Utilizing the new plan, the ABG will evaluate and maintain its living collections, improve exhibits and interpretive materials, preserve the unique ecological communities on the site, and organize nature tours, educational workshops, and other interpretive activities for school districts and other youth groups. The plan also provides a framework for developing supporting resources such as a herbarium, library, service greenhouses, and propagating facilities appropriate to the Alaska Botanical Garden's education and developmental mission.
