Narrated by Marc Scott, this short delivers grounded documentary narration about Whittier, Alaska—where almost everyone lives in a single high‑rise. It’s a compact look at community, design, and survival in extreme weather.
Narration by Marc Scott
In Whittier, Alaska, nearly the entire population lives under one roof. One building, 197 residents. It’s called Begich Towers, a 14‑story former army barracks. Inside, apartments, a post office, a church, a convenience store, even a city hall. Why? Because Whittier gets over 250 inches of snow a year, and hurricane‑force winds are common. So instead of braving the cold, the town brought everything indoors.
Life in Whittier doesn’t just happen together. It happens next door, in hallways instead of highways, and in a place where community is just an elevator ride away.
Background: learn more about Begich Towers.
