The town of Seward is named for William H. Seward, who arranged for Alaska's purchase from Russia. It became a town-site in 1903 to serve as a terminal construction point for the Alaska Railroad which was to open the interior for resource development. The railroad began by private enterprise, was taken over by the Federal Government and construction completed in 1923 opening the Interior to the ice-free port of Seward. Today the port is home to scores of pleasure craft.

Seward is reached by paved seashore-and-mountain highway. Abrupt mountain slopes cloaked in shaggy summer greens and perpetual snows form an impressive backdrop for this progressive city.
