The MacKinnon Apartments is a historic apartment building at 236 Third Street in Juneau, Alaska. The building is a three-story wood-frame structure, finished in stucco; it has corner quoining and a dentillated cornice. When originally built in 1925, it was 80 feet (24 m) long and housed six single-bedroom and 12 studio apartments. In 1959, 20 feet (6.1 m) was added; the extension houses five more studio units.

The building is representative of Juneau's boom years in the 1920s, which was the peak of the Gold Rush.[2] Mackinnon Apartments was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1]
