Knik Arm

Knik Arm (Dena'ina: Nuti) is a waterway into the northwestern part of the Gulf of Alaska.

[2] Knik Arm begins at the Inlet's northern edge, near Anchorage, before heading north and east.

West of Knik Arm is the delta of the Susitna River, the largest stream emptying into the inlet.

[2] The 1964 Alaska earthquake destroyed or significantly damaged most of the Anchorage neighborhoods adjacent to the Arm, including the downtown area.

The proposed Knik Arm Bridge would measure approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) from Point MacKenzie on the west in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough to Anchorage on the east.
