Description: 1905 Vintage Postcard Administration Building Dawson Yukon Territory Tinted Zaccarellis 329 Original vintage postcard from circa 1905 (trees are young) Published by the famous Zaccarelli's"The Most Imposing Building in the North" A lone man stands in the center of the photo in front of the fence AND there is a gentleman cutting the grass with a push mower near the building! Designed by the Department of Public Works architect Thomas W. Fuller in 1899, the building was constructed in 1901 as the legislative and administrative headquarters of the new Yukon Territory. The building was the center of the federal and territorial government in the Yukon until 1953, when the capital was moved to Whitehorse. It is now the Dawson City Museum and Historical Society. Optimism over the Yukon's future was high in the early 1900s and these buildings reflect the confidence and maturity felt in the community. The history of the Administration Building parallels Dawson City's evolution from an overgrown mining camp, to a prosperous capital, and finally an exciting tourist attraction in the heart of the Klondike.
