The joint venture between Huna Totem Development Corporation, Norwegian Cruise Line and the City of Whittier will add a new double-sided dock at the head of the bay, as well as a new terminal building where passengers will disembark.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Passengers arriving in Whittier on Norwegian Cruise Line cruise ships will have a new place to dock in the near future. On Monday, Oct. 10, Gov. Mike Dunleavy joined other officials in picking up a shovel to break ground on phase one of an $80 million port project in Whittier.
The idea is to bring more tourists to both Alaska — and the small Prince William Sound community — something Dunleavy said he supports. Whittier Mayor Dave Dickason said local residents have concerns about the project, especially later phases that would add tourist amenities in town. But Dickason said he personally believes having a second dock for cruise ships in the community will be a good thing.
