R.C.
Wood House
R.C. Wood's banking career in Fairbanks began as a cashier
for E.T. Barnette's Fairbanks Banking Company. In 1909,
wood took over the management of the First National
Bank of Fairbanks. His original one-story house was
built on this site in 1906. When president Harding came
to town in 1923, he had dinner in this beautiful home
overlooking the Chena River. The ravages of time took
their toll and the original structure had to be destroyed
in 1997. The reconstruction of this house duplicates
the original design.
