refnum=66000943The Skagway Historic District and White Pass is a National Historic Landmark district comprising a portion of Skagway, Alaska and the US portion of White Pass 19 miles away [ [http://www.nps.gov/akso/CR/AKRCultural/CulturalMain/2ndLevel/NHL/NHLSkagway.htm NPS details] ] on the border of Canada. Almost 100 buildings remain from the Gold Rush period, but they are under severe threat by continued development, demolition, and inappropriate alterations.
The Historic District is part of the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park which is actively trying to obtain historic buildings before they are destroyed.
