Lake Hood is home to the world's largest seaplane base. This airbase features four display hangars and vintage aircraft, a Cecil Higgins Restoration Hangar (watch volunteers restore a World War II Curtiss P-40), and the Seybert Tower (watch seaplanes from the cockpit and listen to Ted Stevens International radio live from the Lake Hood tower).

The Oscar Anderson House was built in 1915. It is one of the oldest houses in Anchorage and the city's only house museum. Oscar Anderson always claimed to have been the 18th person to arrive in the "tent city" of Ship Creek in early 1915. Anderson was an active businessman in Anchorage, with interests in meatpacking, coal production, airlines, and newspaper publishing.

Small park featuring a bronze statue of Captain Cook standing on a wooden deck gazing out on Cook Inlet, which he explored in 1778 aboard HMS Resolution. The park was dedicated in 1978 and named for his ship. The park's interpretive display, powerful mounted telescope, and commanding vantage point make this a rewarding stop.

This center is staffed by National Park rangers. They also lead a through downtown, stopping at some statues and ending with a view of Cook Inlet.

Veteran museum with large exhibits covering World War II and the Cold War, with the oldest starting with the Civil War.
