PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Describe present appearance of structure/site,then contrast and compare that with it's original appearance,
noting additions,alterations,and changes in materials.Discuss significant architectural features.
This detached two-story single-family residence has a square plan with a
recessed front entrance beside a flat-roofed bay extension from the front, one-stor .
The two-bay facade is asymmetrical and consists of an offset front entrance with
2/2 double-hung windows. The frame construction is finished in stucco and
rests on a concrete foundation. The shed roof lies parallel to the street
and has a flat-roofed garage attached to the rear.
HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Justify how the persons,important events,and/or historical patterns associated with the structure/site
and surrounding area lend the property significance.
This property is significant because it is associated with a person important
to Bozeman history, Fred F. Willson. Son of General Lester S. Willson, an
early Bozeman pioneer, Willson was born in 1877 in Bozeman. He attended
Montana State College for two years and graduated from Columbia University
in architecture in 1902. He studied for two years abroad and upon his
return, Willson practiced with C. S. Haire in Helena and Butte. In his
long practice from 1910-1956, he designed many public, commercial and
residential buildings. This structure does not meet the 50-year age require-
ment of the National Historic Register.
This structure is potentially eligible for the National Register because
of its historical associations and because of its architectural significance.
INTEGRITY: Assess the degree to which the structure/site,and surrounding area accurately convey the historical associations of the
property.
The historic integrity of this property has been retained due to the survival
of original design and materials and continuity of use, setting and location.
INFORMATION VALUE: Explain how the extant structure/site may demonstrate or yield information about its historic use or construc-
tion.
None.
