Tracy Ave. 1985 Revision Matt Cohen I This fine example of the Bungalow style, which is well preserved with the exception ! of the siding, is one of the earliest houses built by local carpenter Lou F. Sie- vert. As typical of Bozeman's early 20th Century builders, Sievert lived in this house temporarily, until it was sold. He later moved into 512 S. Tracy next door, which he built in 1932. Sievert also built 518 N. Tracy. Other residents of this house after Sievert were Russell D. Aldridge, a mailman, in 1933 and Leif C. Young, who ran a second hand goods business in 1935.
