Juneau's original hangar, near this location was lost to a fire from a welding torch spark in 1939. Rebuilt in 1940, our current location inside Historic Merchants Wharf served as an aircraft hangar for many of the float plane operators that eventually merged to become Alaska Airlines.
A local favorite with great views, food and beer.

This was once the site of the most productive gold mines in the United States—$70 million in gold was removed by 2,000 workers. Of the 144 structures that stood in Treadwell in 1910, only a few foundations still exist, and the New Office Building is the only remaining structure. The trail starts from the south end of St. Ann’s Avenue in Douglas. Keep right on the trail and you’ll come to Treadwell Glory Hole, once the entrance to a network of shafts under Gastineau Channel. A waterfall drops into this hole. Return to the fork in the trail and continue down to the shore to see remains of buildings and old mining machinery. Just to the south is a pit where the mine collapsed during torrential rains in 1917. There are remnants of old docks at the shoreline.
