Historic Structure Reports for Ten Buildings: Administrative, Physical History and Analysis Sections - Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, Skagway, Alaska
Blee CH, Spude RL, Cloyd PC. 1984. Historic Structure Reports for Ten Buildings: Administrative, Physical History and Analysis Sections - Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, Skagway, Alaska. Historic Structure Report. National Park Service. Denver Service Center, Denver, Colorado
This volume contains general recommendations for the preservation and restoration of ten historic structures at Klondike Gold Rush National Park, followed by the individual building reports. The structures addressed in this report contribute to the nationally significant Skagway Historic District, providing the “setting” of the historic 1880s to World War I Klondike Gold Rush era. The architectural implications relate to the exterior forms, textures and colors of these buildings. Secondly, local architectural and historical significance is merited by some post-Gold Rush era facades, and other structures in their entirety, sure as the Moore House and Cabin. These key factors provide direction for general exterior restoration and preservation. In some cases, building interiors are of much less significance, so modern rehabilitation is the appropriate treatment. This volume contains general recommendations followed by the individual building reports. Sections contain summaries of alternative treatments, recommended treatments, evaluation of effect, and cost estimates, illustrated with photographs and drawings.
