Ketchikan’s beautiful Creek Street has a VERY scandalous past. 👀 Long before the gift shops and cruise passengers, this colorful boardwalk was Ketchikan’s infamous red-light district, once home to dozens of houses where fishermen, miners and loggers came looking for a little… entertainment. 😏 And nobody became more famous here than Dolly Arthur, the legendary “sporting woman” who made No. 24 Creek Street her home and business beginning in 1919. Today, Dolly’s House is preserved as a museum and remains one of the most fascinating pieces of Ketchikan history. Come take a one-minute walk through the wilder side of Alaska history with me.
