The historic core of the building is topped by an intersecting gable roof, covered with asphalt shingles. The exterior is sided with non-historic wide-lap siding. Windows include 1/1 double-hung, fixed, and plate windows; all windows are wood-framed, and many are non-historic units in new openings. The gable-roofed, open front porch has square wood posts and a solid balustrade, also sided with wide-lap siding. The foundation is concrete. On the rear or north side of the house, there are non-historic shed-roofed additions which have the same siding has the main portion of the building. A wood-framed, one-stall garage is behind the main house. The gable roof is covered with asphalt shingles and the walls covered with wide-lap siding. The garage door opens on an overhead rail. MONTANA HISTORIC PROPERTY RECORD PAGE 3 Property Name: 802 North Rouse Ave. Site Number: 24 GA 1724 HISTORY OF PROPERTY ❑ See Additional Information Page This house was built in 1930-1931 by or for then-owner R.G. Gallup. Gallup and his wife Clara never lived at the house and immediately sold it to Roy Marks. Marks and his wife Beulah moved into the house in 1931 and remained there until the end of 1939. During their ownership, Roy Marks worked as a laborer for the City Parks Department. When the Marks family left the house, they deeded it back to Gallup, who retained ownership for the following four years. Again, Gallup did not reside at 802 N. Rouse. Renters in the early 1940s included Ray and Lamoine George (laborer) and Arth Kirk(trucker). Like Gallup, the next two owners, A.R. Mackleberg and Dorothy Sheppard, did not live there. They owned numerous properties in Bozeman and undoubtedly considered 802 N. Rouse useful primarily for investment purposes. Before Dorothy Sheppard sold the house to Nanna Terpstra in 1946, she divided the four full city lots on which it stood into three separate parcels. The house at 802 N. Rouse stood on the southernmost of the three; Sheppard subsequently sold the remaining two parcels to other parties who built houses on them. Terpstra retained ownership of the house and reduced land parcel for at least 22 years. She initially rented the house to family members, Ray and Hermina Terpstra (driver and feed man for Farmers Union Grain Terminal Association). Later renters included John and Marilyn O'Donnell (laborer for Corcorau Pulpwood and then employee of the National Guard) and Thomas and Rosemary Zentner(packer for the Montana Flour Mills Company). The Zentners later purchased the house and Rosemary Zentner continues to live there to the present day. INFORMATION SOURCESBIBLIOGRAPHY ❑ See Additional Information Page R.L. Polk& Company.

Houses of this scale and level of detailing were typical of working-class neighborhoods in turn-of-the-century American towns, and it is the characteristic building type in Bozeman's northeastern residential neighborhood. 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 early 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 listing in 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 greatly diminished by non- historic alterations to the building's exterior. These changes include exterior siding of non-historic pattern and materials, non-historic windows in an altered fenestration pattern, and substantial non-historic structural additions.
