The 1884 Sanborn Map for Bozeman does not include the area east of Church Street, so does not depict any of the buildings then on that part of East Mendenhall St. Similarly, the 1889 and 1890 Sanborn Maps only show the area of the western three lots of the subject block of East Mendenhall St, but not the eastern portion where the property is located. The subject property first appears on the 1891 Sandborn Map of Bozeman (Sheet 13), with the form of the existing 1 1/2-story dwelling structure situated at the southeast corner of then labled Block 105, fronting what was then labeled as Marcellus (Mendenhall) Street. Subsequent years of Sanborn Maps indicate the same structure with only subtle changes in the form of small rear and side porches. There are no Bozeman City Directories for the 1880s, so information regarding McDonald's original residency at the property cannot be documented. The 1902 Bozeman City Directory lists "Archie McDonald" as a resident of 223 (currently 541) E Mendenhall, and lists his occupation as a "capitalist". The 1900 U.S. Census for Bozeman, Montana, (5th Ward, Enumeration District No. 187, Sheet No. 8, June 5, 1900), lists "Arch" and "Josephine McDonald" as owning and living in their house at 223 E Mendenhall Street. Archibald McDonald is listed as being born in Scotland in 1839, and becoming a naturalized citizen of the U.S. 1856. His occupation is listed as "farmer."

NRHP Criteria:A B C D See Additional Information PageIntegrity (location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, association) Recent major remodeling of the building, including foundation and basement construction, redesign and reconstruction of entire roof form and construction, reconstruction and modification of front porch, and installation of new windows, all greatly decreases the level of historic integrity in the areas of design, materials, and workmanship. Hence, the building lacks substantial original integrity to justify a recommendation to nominate the property to the National Register of Historic Places. All recent changes and removal of historic fabric does not follow the U.S. Secretary of Interior Standards for historic rehabilitation.
