Only in the Yukon: The Shipyards

The Shipyards was a riverfront squatter community in Whitehorse, but the last squatter was moved out just a few years ago, and all but three of the dwellings--those designated as heritage buildings--have been removed. Five years ago (or so) there would have been about twenty shacks or cabins.

Long ago, this building would have been a store or business of some sort. You can see the storefront facing the street. This photo is taken from the back side, the side along the river bank.
