Reception Building

The Reception Building, once known as the Reception Saloon, is a historic building at 2nd and Browning Streets in Cordova, Alaska. Set into a hillside, it is a wood-frame structure with two stories at the front and one at the rear. Built in 1908, it is one of the few surviving buildings associated with the early days of the city's development. The Reception Saloon was established by Owen Webster "Link" Wain, a major figure in the economic development of frontier Alaska in the early 20th century, and operated from 1908 until its closure due to Prohibition in 1918.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
