The Sitka U.S. Post Office and Court House, also known as the Sitka Post Office and now serving as Sitka City Hall, is a Moderne style building located at 100 Lincoln Street in the center of Sitka, Alaska. One of eight Federal buildings constructed in the Alaska Territory in the 1930s, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.It is a poured-concrete structure that is rectangular in shape, set on a raised basement. The reduced-width second level gives the building the appearance of having wings on either side. The building was historically accessed through an entry on the first floor, about 10 feet above street level, and accessed via symmetrically placed stairways. Its main entrance has since been relocated to the basement level. The main block is divided into five bays, each of which has slightly recessed windows, with a decorative panel between the first and second levels.The building housed a number of federal offices, and housed the Sitka Public Library as well between 1938 and 1943.

The building then sat vacant until the city took it over for use as city hall in 1993.

The John O'Connell Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge over the Sitka Channel located in Sitka, Alaska. The bridge connects the town of Sitka on Baranof Island to the airport and Coast Guard Station on Japonski Island.

The two-lane bridge is 1,255 feet (383 m) in total length, with a main span of 450 feet (140 m). The bridge was also the United States' first vehicular cable-stayed girder spanned bridge. The four 100-foot-high (30 m) steel pylons carry two three-cable sets, each carrying a section of the bridge deck. Special consideration was given to the bridge's aesthetics due to its proximity to nearby Castle Hill.Approximately 4000 vehicles cross the bridge every day, up from the approximate 1000 shore boat passengers per day prior to the bridge's completion.A man from Bellingham, Washington, died in August 2015 after jumping off the bridge to swim ashore.The bridge was designated as an Alaska Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 2022.

Alaska Native Brotherhood Hall, or Sitka Camp No. 1, is significant for being the original chapter of the Alaska Native Brotherhood, an Alaska-wide Native organization. It is located on the waterfront in Sitka, Alaska, on Katlian Street.The two-story building, built in 1914, is of wood-frame construction, and is about 40 feet (12 m) wide and 60 feet (18 m) long. Most of its length extends out over water, supported on pilings. The roof is trimmed at front and back by plain bargeboard with seven unadorned corbel-like supports in the form of triangular struts. Architectural evidence suggests that the building has been altered and enlarged; adding the front quarter of the building and raising the roof to a full two stories probably occurred sometime after its original construction.The interior of the building is mainly taken up by a large two-story auditorium, with the stage at the rear (over the water). A narrow gallery, accessed by stairs within the auditorium space, wraps around its rear and side walls. The front of the building has a lobby area on the first floor, and office space for the Brotherhood on the second floor.The Alaska Native Brotherhood was founded in Sitka by Tlingit natives in 1912 as a vehicle to fight discrimination against them in restaurants and movie theaters. The organization, which now has a much broader membership across Alaska's many native groups, has been successful in bringing about significant changes for its members, including securing United States citizenship for Alaska natives and passage of the Alaska Historic Preservation Act.The hall was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1987.
