TRAM TO PILLAR MOUNTAIN

With plans underway to develop Near Island, the city of Kodiak is looking for the next development area, Pillar Mountain! Soon there may be talk of a tram (cable car) from the city dock to the top of Pillar Mountain for tourists to capture that postcard picture. Development plans would include a restaurant and gift shop and perhaps a giant stature of a fisherman to make a focal point like Cristo Redentor on Corcovado in Rio de Janeiro. Perhaps the city could put in an animal enclosure so the tourists could be guaranteed of seeing our famous bear, similar to the Barbary Apes in Gibraltar.

This could be a nice money maker for the city and would give the tourist another option for their time while visiting beautiful Kodiak.
