Broadway Street Historic District

Broadway

Skagway's Gold Rush-era main street, with boardwalks and false-front wooden buildings. Bars, shops and museums cluster here.

Broadway is Skagway's main street. It runs about ten blocks north from the harbor. Dozens of wooden buildings from 1897–1900 line both sides, with tall false fronts and wooden boardwalks that look like a Western movie set. The street is lined with bars, jewelry shops, souvenir stores and small museums, and most of the buildings have been restored by the national park. Crowds are heavy on cruise days, so stroll in the morning or evening. You can stop by Skagway Brewing Co. to try its spruce-tip ale.
