Starr Hill, Juneau
Starr Hill is a populated place in Juneau, Alaska, United States. It is named for Frank Starr (1849-1898), a soldier from Maine who arrived shortly after the discovery of the Juneau gold fields in 1880, staked some claims but mainly found work in construction. Starr also staked land on the hill near the road leading to the Silver Bow Basin gold fields. The Hill saw significant development beginning in 1913 when Conrad Fries (d. 1922) built six miners’ cabins on the 500 block of Kennedy Street, buildings which are now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A few years later Juneau businessman Bernard (B.M.) Behrends (b. 1862) built five smaller cabins on the 400 block of Kennedy. Starr Hill now includes several dozen private homes which overlook upper Juneau and the Alaska State Capitol, and a trailhead to the Mount Roberts Trail.〔Juneau's Historic Neighborhoods, Volume One Starr Hill, City and Borough of Juneau Community Development Department, 1986〕
The name was published in 1957 by R. N. DeArmond and entered into the Geographic Names Information System on July 12, 2000.〔(USGS GNIS Feature Detail Report: Starr Hill )〕
