    "body_md": "A proposed 15 acre RV resort at Third Avenue and Ingra Street would bring more than a hundred full service RV hookups to an edge of downtown Anchorage that has sat largely underused for years. The project includes an Alaska Native cultural memorial garden, an outdoor amphitheater, pickleball courts, and a dozen long term housing units.\n\nThe plan goes beyond simple RV parking. Organizers want the site to pull in both visitors and locals, mixing tourism infrastructure with public recreation space and a residential component.\n\nThe dozen long term housing units add a small but notable residential piece to a project otherwise built around tourism and recreation.\n\nIf construction stays on track, the project would wrap up around 2028. The development represents a bet on tourism and downtown land use changing together in Anchorage.",
