Biography

S. Howard Ewing was a charter member of the Juneau Men's Igloo No. 6.

Ewing served as the Juneau agent for the Pacific Coast Steamship Company. Prior to 1910 he worked aboard the company’s vessels as a freight clerk and purser.

In 1910 he became the resident agent in Juneau for the Pacific Coast Steamship Company and later for its successor, the Pacific Steamship Company.

In 1918 Ewing left Juneau and joined the John D. Spreckles Company in San Francisco in connection with its oriental steamship service.

Ewing Way runs from South Franklin Street to Gastineau Avenue opposite the Juneau Cold Storage. The area was dedicated for street purposes by the Pacific Coast Steamship Company on February 28, 1913, and the street was probably named for S. Howard Ewing.
