Yukon Hotel, National historic site on First Avenue, Dawson City, Canada.
The wooden Yukon Hotel features a three-story false front facade with large windows and an ornate balcony railing at street level.
Built in 1898 during the Klondike Gold Rush, the structure initially served as government offices before its transformation into the Binet Block hotel.
The building represents the commercial architecture of frontier establishments during the period when thousands of prospectors arrived seeking gold fortunes.
The hotel operated continuously under different names until 1957, when it closed and remained unused until preservation efforts began in the 1970s.
The structure combines rough logs chinked with mud for the main body while utilizing scarce milled lumber for its street-facing facade.
