The Downtown Fairbanks Walking Tour

 

Northward Building

Fairbanks' fist steel girder "skyscraper" was built from 1950-1952 and is still one of the tallest buildings in town. The eight-story edifice was Fairbanks' first apartment building and setting for Edna Ferbers' novel, Ice Palace, about Alaskans striving for statehood in the 1950's.
