Number the buildings and features to correlate with the Site Map. This is a small, 1-story, rectangular, vernacular residence of wood-frame construction. The gable roof is covered with asphalt shingles and is pierced by a single stovepipe. The exterior is sided with wide-lap aluminum siding; this covers the original drop siding, according to the original property inventory. The windows are a combination of sliding, awning, and fixed units; all appear to be modern, and are in modern openings. A possible former front porch has been enclosed and integrated into the main portion of the house. It lies under a hip roof. The entry now is on the south side of that enclosed porch. The foundation is concrete. In the backyard, there is a small, modern metal shed. MONTANA HISTORIC PROPERTY RECORD PAGE 3 .=rty Name: 327 North Rouse Ave. Site Number: 24 GA 1695 HISTORY OF PROPERTY ❑ See Additional Information Page In 1939, Myrtle Florence Elliott purchased the triangular piece of Lot 14 in Beall's First Addition which lay on the east side of Bozeman Creek. Her husband Jerry built their house on this parcel shortly thereafter. The couple lived there only briefly, renting it out by 1942 and then selling it in 1944 to C.W. Logan. Logan never resided on the property, but instead rented it to John and Fannie Harrison. John died within a short time, but Fannie Logan continued to reside at 327 N. Rouse to the mid-to late 1960s. Alvie Harrison, presumably a son, resided there at the same time. The city directory listed no occupation for members of the Harrison family.

Houses of this scale and level of detailing were typical of working-class neighborhoods in American towns, and it is the characteristic building type in Bozeman's northeastern residential neighborhoods. This portion of the community was home to much of Bozeman's small industrial area-- primarily devoted to the processing and shipping of agricultural products --and consequently, much of the neighborhood's residential component served blue-collar workers and their families. In general, these houses were smaller and less ornate than those found elsewhere in the town. The bulk of the neighborhood's homes were constructed during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a period of growth for the town of Bozeman as a whole, and particularly for the northeastern neighborhood, which benefitted from proximity to the newly-constructed Northern Pacific and Milwaukee Road railway lines. This house, therefore, is potentially significant as a representative example of period vernacular residential architecture, as well as for its association with the continuing growth of Bozeman and its agricultural industry. The building, however, suffers from a diminished level of historic integrity (as described below). Because of this loss of integrity, the building is no longer a high-quality example of its type, and is not independently eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. INTEGRITY(location,design,setting,materials,workmanship, feeling,association) ❑ See Additional Information Page This building retains integrity of location and setting. Other aspects of integrity have been diminished by non-historic alterations to the building's exterior. These changes include exterior siding of non-historic pattern and materials, and non-historic windows in an altered fenestration pattern.
