The Old Willow Community Center is a historic community building on West Willow Community Center Circle, off mile marker 69.7 of the Parks Highway in Willow, Alaska. It is a single-story log structure, measuring 60 by 40 feet (18 m × 12 m), built out of local spruce. It is covered by a broad aluminum gabled roof; the gable ends are finished in wooden shingles. The interior consists of a single large chamber. The building was constructed in 1961 as part of a community drive for a meeting space that was more spacious than the local railroad station. In 1992, it was moved a short way south of its original location, where the new community center and library now stand. The building continues to be used for community events.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.[1]
