Appointed by President Wilson in 1914, Mears served as chief engineer and later chairman of the Alaska Engineering Commission until 1923. Concurrent with driving rail across hundreds of miles of rugged wilderness, he created a town for the railroad workers and other settlers - the town that became Alaska's largest city, Anchorage.
