J. M. Davis House

The J. M. Davis House, located at 202 6th Street in Juneau, Alaska, is a historic two-story wood-frame residence built in 1892 during the gold mining boom. It stands as one of the most elegant and oldest homes from that era. The house was constructed by miner J. M. Davis and his wife, a wealthy English artist, and has ties to notable figures, including their son Trevor Davis, a prominent Alaskan landscape photographer. Additionally, it has served as the official residence for the local US Coast Guard Admiral. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, making it a significant site for both tourists and researchers interested in Alaska's rich history.
