This detached detached two-and-one-half story multi-family residence has a square plan with
a hipped roofed front porch across the front and a second story bay window above
peaked by a gable roof projecting from the main roof. The two-bay facade is
asymmetrical and consists of an off-center front entrance with fixed and 1/1
double-hung windows. The frame construction is finished in shiplap and rests
on a low rubble foundation covered with cement. The gable roof is covered with
asphalt shingles and features two gabled dormers and a central brick chimney.
The axis of the roof is parallel to the street. The original single-family
residence has been altered to form three apartments with an outside stairway
built to accommodate the upstairs apartments.
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 was built for Martin Gary who arrived in Bozeman about 1900 to
set up a grocery, and later, a grain business. Arriving with Gary was his
brother, John. The two brothers built side-by-side within a few years of
each other. When Plartin Gary moved to Livingston, Montana, his brother
then moved into his brother's house.
This structure qualifies as a contributing element within a potential historic
district due to its association with the residential aspect of the Civic
Phase of Bozeman 's historic/architectural development.
