Tracy Ave. 1985 Revision Matt Cohen One of the most significant examples of the I-House building type remaining in Bozeman, this load bearing brick house was built by George Harrison, one of the several black residents of the city in the 19th century. Harrison, according to the 1892 city directory, was a stone mason who settled in Bozeman in 1876 from Utah, and roomed on Main Street. The narrow, eaves front, 1 1/2 story, 3 x 1 bay house has a single gable end bay window, typical of this building type. Although many houses of this type were built in Bozeman between about 1870 and the early 18901s, only a few remain intact today, and none built of brick remain, except for this one. The brick entry vestibule, an original feature, is unusual, as is the shingled, blind central wall dormer. The other I-House in the district, 411 N. Tracy, which is built of wood has two small gable dormers, like this house. The porch was added to the house around 1900, as shown on the Sanborn maps. Harrison probably retained ownership of the house after building it, and rented it. By 1916, William Haley, then proprietor of the Kopp Co. butcher shop on Main St. , was the resident here, although if is not known if he was the owner. By 1926, James E. Cordry was living here with his wife, Ida M. Cordry. The house appears to be individually eligible for National Register listing due to its architectural significance. i Bibliography Application for Sewer Connection: Oct. 25, 1909, George Harrison Application for Water Service: Aug 30, 1926, J.E.
