'Dawson City' was a local nickname given to a cluster of modest fishing shacks and summer dwellings at Brier Neck owing to their resemblance to something you might have found in the Yukon gold rush town of that name. The array of residences atop the knoll overlooking a wide expanse of sand grass perhaps suffered by comparison to the Bass Rocks estates on the other side of Good Harbor Beach to the south.Postcard Details
