Government House, Government building in Fagatogo, Pago Pago, American Samoa
The Government House stands as a wood frame cruciform structure mounted on concrete piers, featuring a corrugated metal roof and clapboard siding over two stories.
Constructed in 1903 under Admiral Uriel Sebree's direction, this building marked the beginning of United States Navy administration following the 1899 Tripartite Convention.
The interior contains five public rooms including a formal sitting room and a traditional Samoan room decorated with tapa cloth displaying local artifacts.
The facility operates as the official residence and workplace of American Samoa's Governor, with administrative offices located on the third floor.
Ten-foot metal spikes anchor the building into the ground, protecting it against hurricane-force winds while overlooking Pago Pago Bay from Observatory Point.
