Castle Hill
Castle Hill or Noow Tlein, in Sitka, Alaska, is a National Historic Landmark and the historical site of Tlingit and Russian forts. It is also the location where, in 1867, the Russian flag was lowered and the American flag was raised, marking the transfer of Alaska to the United States.
In 1959, after Alaska was admitted as the 49th U.S. state, Castle Hill was the location where the first 49-star U.S. flag in Alaska was raised, though the ceremony was unofficial and secret.[4]
It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1962.
No structures remain. It is now an Alaska state park located at Lincoln and Katlian Streets, in the Baranof Island area of Sitka.

Sitka Pioneer Home
Sitka Pioneer Home is the third largest Alaska Pioneer Home and can care for 75 patients including those suffering from Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia. The home uses a three-tiered system of care: tier I or "Independent", tier II or "Basic Assistance", and tier III or "24-Hour Care". The Pioneer Home also plays a large part in Sitka's Alaska Day festivities. The parade through downtown ends close to the grounds and hundreds of people mingle at a free reception inside the home with live entertainment traditionally provided by the New Archangel Dancers. The annual Alaska Day croquet tournament takes place on the grounds at the same time.

Prospector Statue

The sculpture was supposed to be modeled after real-life pioneer William "Skagway Bill" Fonda originally of Fonda, New York. This statue is the larger of two models that Lewis created. The smaller of which sits in Seattle's Klondike Gold Rush National Historic Park in Pioneer Square. After more than three tons of clay and 21 years of fundraising, the sculpture was finally shipped to Sitka in time for its dedication at 1949's Alaska Day.
