2024 Endangered Historic Properties
Preservation Alaska is pleased to announce the 2024 Most Endangered Historic Properties list. This year, there are eleven historic properties instead of our usual ten historic properties. This is only the second time we have added a property to the list.

It is in danger of being lost due to the Alaska Mental Health Trust Fund’s intention of logging off over 1500 acres of trees. The congressional order giving the land to the Trust requires that the historic boatworks to be demolished....
