TheUtkeagvik Church Manse, also known as theUtkeagvik Presbyterian Church Manse andThe Pastor's House, is a historic churchparsonage at 1268 Church Street inUtqiaġvik, Alaska. It is a two-story wood frame gambrel-roofedDutch Colonial, and is distinctive as the only building of this style in Utqiaġvik. Built in 1930, it was also the first two-story building in the community, and the first to be built from a kit, a building method later widely adopted inArctic Alaska. The kit was configured inSeattle, Washington, shipped by freighter to Utqiaġvik, and assembled by local Native Alaskan workers under the supervision of Dr. Henry Greist. Its construction was funded by the U.S. Presbyterian Board of Missions. Dr. Greist was for many years a pillar of the local community, who operated an outpatient medical clinic from this building. Geist was a medical doctor andPresbyterian minister who served the people of Utqiaġvik and the surrounding areas from 1921 to 1936.^[2] The name Utkeagvik is spelled Utqiaġvik in Iñupiaq, meaning "place to harvest edible roots".

The manse was added to theNational Register of Historic Places in 1983.^[1]
