Number the buildings and features to correlate with the Site Map. The Edward and Stella Anacker house is a wood-framed, 1-1/2 story building, with a rectangular mass measuring approximately 23' (N-S) by 67' (E-W). The building displays minimal Colonial Revival design elements. It is on a comcrete foundation, has asbestos-shingle exterior cladding, and a gable roof surfaced with asphalt shingles. The building is visually defined by a prominent shed-roofed dormer centered on the north gable face, extending approximately two-thirds of the length of the roof face. A similar, but smaller dormer occupies part of the west half of the south roof face. The south roof face is pierced by a large, rectangular, red-brick chimney. The building's fenestration pattern appears to be largely or wholly historic. Doors are hollow-core wood, and most windows are wood-framed, double-hung units, with each sash containing two horizontal lights. The primary entry faces south, with a centered entry opening to a large concrete stoop. The rear entry opens to a large, non-historic wooden deck, which measures approximately 30' by 30'. A amall, roughly-built carport addition is on the east side of the north elevation. It is wood-framed with open walls and a shallow-pitch shed roof. It appears to be non-historic. No other buildings or structures exist on the site in 2011. When this site was first recorded in 2003, a small garage building was observed near the northeast corner of the site. This building is no longer extant, though a concrete pad in the area may mark its former location. MONTANA HISTORIC PROPERTY RECORD PAGE 3 Property Name: Edward and Stella Anacker House Site Number: 24 GA 1624 HISTORY OF PROPERTY ❑ See Additional Information Page Located near the western edge of the City of Bozeman, the area surrounding this site was likely used for agricultural purposes throughout the late 19th and early 20 centuries. The land received irrigation water from the Farmer's Canal, which ran near the south and east boundaries of the tract, and early 20t"-century deed transfers for the property typically also included shares of stock in the Farmer's Canal Company. As the population of Bozeman grew during the middle years of the 20t" Century, the city's urban footprint expanded westward into this area. The area was formally subdivided for residential purposes in 1946 by Marguerite Kirk, a prominent Gallatin County landowner. Her"Mountain Vista" subdivision. described as a"suburb" of Bozeman, contained eight residential tracts, all fronting Huffine Lane to the south. Huffine Lane, the primary travel route heading west from Bozeman, was also designated as US Highway 191. US 191 was relocated to the north in 1962, and the road is now an extension of Bozeman's West College Street. This property consists of Tract 1 of the Mountain Vista Subdivision. The lot was purchased by Edward and Stella Anacker in 1951, and their house was built in 1953. Anacker taught Chemistry at nearby Montana State University, and in his later years became very well-known locally as a long-distance runner, establisheng the annual Bridger Ridge Run. Anacker continued residing at the house until shortly before his death in April 2011. INFORMATION SOURCES/BIBLIOGRAPHY ❑ See Additional Information Page Dumas, Tim. "Tribute: Ed Anacker, 1921-2011."

MONTANA HISTORIC PROPERTY RECORD PAGE 4 Property Name: Edward and Stella Anacker House Site Number: 24 GA 1624 NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES NRHP Listing Date: NRHP Eligibility: ❑ Yes ® No ❑ Individually ❑ Contributing to Historic District ®Noncontributing to Historic District NRHP Criteria: ❑ A ❑ B ❑ C ❑ D Area of Significance: Period of Significance: STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE ❑ See Additional Information Page The Edward and Stella Anacker house is a generally well-preserved example of mid-twentieth century middle-cass residential construction in the United States. Typical for the era, the house displays only limited architectural detail, a style sometimes referred to as"Minimal Traditional." In this house, the large dormer areas and shingle style asbestos cladding, suggest a design reference to higher-style Colonial Revival residences of earlier years. The building itself displays a diminished though acceptible level of exterior architectural integrity. The integrity of the overall site, however, has been lessened through the removal of the former garage building, visual encroachment by the widening of South 19th Avenue, and the construction of modern, visually-intrusive apartment buildings to the west. These changes have greatly diminished the property's iintegrity of setting, feeling, and association, and for this reason the building is not considered eligible for National Register of Historic Places listing. INTEGRITY(location, design,setting,materials,workmanship,feeling,association) ❑ See Additional Information Page The surviving building at the site retains a high level of integrity overall; the original form, fenestration pattern, and cladding all appear to survive wholly intact. A non-historic carport structure and open deck have been added to the rear (north) elevation of the building, but do not heavily detract from the overall building. More substantive changes have taken place at the site level. The Feature 2 garage building observed at the site in 2003 is no longer extant, presumably removed in conjunction with the recent widening of adjacent South 191h Avenue. The widened street is itself a visual encroachment on the house. The recent construction of large apartment buildings immediately to the west is also a visual intrusion to the site.
