I called the local Anchorage office, after waiting 15 minutes, somone picked up the line (I could hear voices in the background), and set the receiver back down effectively cutting me off. I called again, but this time after 15 minutes, it began to ring 10-12 times, then a automated voice told me "call later", and shut the line. And socialists nationwide are complaining about DOGE? How about this ridiculously rude SSA office. I live out on the coast, I am going to have to pay Alaska Airlines $600.00 to fly in to Anchorage, then $250 for a B&B, another $50 in cab fees, to go here, maybe be seen, then I may be able to get something done, maybe not. And these people are supposed to work for us?

Wow, what a scam. A…read morebastion of nickel-and-diming bureaucracy! Executive Summary: If you are moving to the Anchorage, the city will treat your unloading of personal goods in the exact same manner as if you were building a condo or opening a water main. Seriously, you need a right-of-way permit...you need to fill it out, and then you need to attach a map telling them where your moving trailer will rest. Oh, and you have to PAY to unload your goods as well. How much? $0.70/per square foot/per day. Since I only needed a day to unload it would cost me about $5. OK, not too bad right? Only problem is that there is a MINIMUM fee of $130. This kind of fee makes the banksters at the credit card companies look...well...kind by comparison. So I filled out all my permit paper work and was waiting to pickup my permit. Then I get a call from a permit inspector saying he "happened to be in the neighborhood" and that my permit was not posted on my moving container. He was correct, it wasn't. I had taken my lunch break to help the truck driver drop off the container and wasn't going to be able to pickup the permit till after I got off of work. The container had been there only a couple hours. Later that day I waited in 3 different lines for the right to pay $130 for my piece of paper allowing me to move into the city. I always thought of Alaska more as a "don't tread on me" type of state. But, if you want to move to Anchorage, expect lots of treading.

This is more of an information only posting. After all it is a parking garage. Here is some cut a…read morepaste posted by the city. The building enhances the urban environment of downtown Anchorage by providing retail shops, restaurants, and other businesses at ground level with nine floors of parking overhead. The garage provides more than 840 parking spaces that will consolidate State employee vehicles into one structure. Forty spaces will be available for visitors on State business. The street-front retail spaces are tucked under covered walkways that form a brightly lit colonnade. The colonnade promotes and sustains pedestrian activity, particularly in winter. Heated sidewalks ring three sides of the building for added winter safety. The retail along F Street forms a strong pedestrian link between the Civic and Convention Centers, Performing Arts Center (PAC), and the Egan Center. Retail along E Street and 7th Avenue draw pedestrian circulation to the Convention Center from E St. Entries to retail are from the colonnade. New sidewalks will be wider than the existing sidewalks and will receive pattern and texture. Bike racks, seating units, and kiosks are included as site amenities. The exterior façade has a varied composition, beginning with vehicle barrier cables sleeved through the columns, which are in turn enveloped by a skin consisting of two types of metal louver panels, along with voids, that create dynamic and ascending diagonal patterns. The 7th Avenue façade will feature a site for public artwork. The delicate glass enclosed stair tower and elevator lobby anchors the plaza at 7th Avenue and F Street, and is balanced by a similar glazing system that encloses the stair tower at the alley and E Street. The overall composition of vertical and horizontal skin elements serves to break up the scale of the facility and create a layered effect on the facade. The garage employs a "camelback" circulation pattern for vehicles to facilitate timely exiting movements at peak departure events. The park-on ramping occurs on three sides of the structure, with a flat horizontal tier at the 7th Avenue elevation. Construction of the Linny Pacillo Parking Center began February 1, 2007, and opened in September, 2008. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Linny Pacillo parking garage is now open. You may use the 2-hour visitor parking for Atwood building business only. After you have concluded your business, you MUST validate your ticket with the security guard at the front desk in the Atwood Building lobby to park for free. If the lot is full, you are welcome to come to Building Management, Suite 102 and pick up a temporary parking pass for Lot 102. Back to my words. I have used it at night for parking when attending the PAC. It cost about three dollars which was cheaper then the parking at the Bus Depot parking. .

The space is well maintained, ease of access with elevators and escalators between the multiple floors, clean and orderly. They work to ensure all of the AV Equipment is up to date and works well for events. For the functions with meals, they've all done quite well with serving, keeping stations full and orderly. They're quick to remove empty plates and glasses as well. The food has been decent, I wouldn't say absolutely amazing, but definitely edible.
