FACTS ABOUT SEWARD
Seward is situated on Resurrection Bay, midway oi
ihe coast line of the Gulf of Alaska and 160 miles from
route of the Pacific steamers to the Orient.
The various trade routes of the North Pacific Ocean,
and all the roads and highways and trails anti mountain
passes from the interior converge at this point much as it
nature had anticipated the need ot a gateway through
which the trade and travel of -a great region might find
convenient passage.
The deep, perfectly protected harbor presents an ob
long surface embracing forty square miles, upon which
any ship that floats may sail in safety at any time, and
w hich in appearance suggests nothing so much as a beauti
ful inland lake.
The mainland and snores ol kesurreclion supply am
p!e space and perfect topography tor the building ol a city
of whatever extent future need; may develop; and this cir
cumstance. added to its natural position as a gateway to
the interior, and the freedom from ice at all seasons ol the
harbor and adjacent waters lead the government to select
this port as the ocean terminal for • the railroad. The un
1'anted coal and oil and mineral resources of Alaska w?li
flow through (his port to enter the commerce of the world,
and in return will come the supplies lor distribution o\ei
a territory greater in extent than many state combined,
thus making it the great port of the North Pacitic or the
N E W YORK OF A1 .ASKA.
For other facts about Seward and the great district
surrounding this city, write to the
SEWARD CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
