State Capitol
This building was completed in 1931 and served as the territorial Capitol. When Alaska became a state in 1959, it became the state Capitol.
Front of Capitol
Alaska State Museum
In honor of the centenial of the purchase of Alaska by the United States from Russia, funds were made avaible in 1967 to build this museum.
Liberty Bell:
The United States Department of the Treasury selected a foundry in France to cast 55 full-sized replicas of the Liberty Bell. States and territories of the United States each received a bell as a gift to be displayed and rung on special occasions.
Governor's Mansion
I believe this is the mansion. The photograph was taken from a street overpass for pedestrians, not for from the Capitol. It was built in 1912.
Senate Mall
This building in downtown Juneau now houses numerous shops. It may have been associated with the State Senate at one time.
State Office Building
A quick search of the internet for information on this building produced information of an office located on the 10th floor. My guess, there is more than one "State Office Building".
Windfall Fisherman Statue:
Statue of life-size grizzly bear located across the street from the Capitol.
