Creek Street

Ketchikan, USA

Creek Street is a historic boardwalk that runs along Ketchikan Creek, lined with quaint wooden buildings that date back to the early 20th century, when the area thrived during the salmon canning industry. The most famous structure here is Dolly's House, a former brothel that has been turned into a museum, offering insights into the town's colorful past. Wandering the creek, you’ll find shops, art galleries, and cafés, perfect for a leisurely stroll. Early morning or late afternoon is ideal for lighter crowds and better light for photos. Keep an eye out for salmon running upstream, especially during the summer months.
