Meyer Building Historic Structure Reports : Skagway Historic District and White Pass National Historic Landmark, Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, Skagway, Alaska.

摘要

A new publication from Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park outlines the history and recommended preservation for the Meyer Building. These two gold rush era buildings were donated by the Rasmuson Foundation to the National Park Service in 2008. Many drawings and photographs make this book an interesting compilation about Skagway's history. Prior to NPS ownership, George Rapuzzi used these areas for storage and a warehouse for his extensive collection of Skagway artifacts. This written account serves as a great introduction to Skagway history moving from transient settlement to a permanent community. The National Park Service has been stabilizing both buildings since 2010. The long term plan is to provide museum exhibits and public access to gold rush era photographs and documents.
