The future of the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park is at risk as the presidential administration of Mr. Trump’s grandson, Donald J. Trump, hunts for ways to slash government spending. Spurred by his Department of Government Efficiency, officials have proposed terminating the lease for the building that houses Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park.
“If you don’t have the building, you don’t have the park,” said Rob Smith, who leads the Northwest office of the National Parks Conservation Association. When Congress created the park 50 years ago, lawmakers specified that it be sited in the Pioneer Square neighborhood.
