Government Office
St. Paul Island


Return to Seal Islands Historic District National Historic Landmark

1940. A new government office, 24 ft. x 36 ft., with two fireproof vaults, one on the mainfloor and one in the basement,was constructed (St. Paul Agent’s Log). This building later became the bar operated by the St. Paul Tribal Government. The bar was closed circa 2003. A cache of government documents was retained in the basement vault until 2007, when the St. Paul Tribal Government under contract to NOAA in collaboration with the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) arranged for the electronic copying of documents and the transfer of originals to NARA in Anchorage.
