#TBT to the elegance of those old false front buildings!⁠

This photo was taken March 22 1901, and the dogsled team was about to take off to Valdez, Alaska.⁠
⁠
The building they are in front of became the more commonly known Royal Alexandra Hotel, and no longer exists today. It was situated near where the Flora Dora Hotel still stands.⁠

"The whole ground beneath the city is permafrost. Someday if it melts, the city might be in trouble. In its heyday in 1897, close to 40,000 people lived here . You won’t feel like leaving once you are here today. They have maintained most of the original places using false fronts and renovation. And yet it doesn’t feel like a museum at all.⁠⁠
It’s a living, breathing, beautiful northern town with super friendly people."⁠⁠
