RE: Montana State University-Bozeman Historic District National Register listing
Dear Mayor Becker, Deputy Mayor Krauss, and the Bozeman City Commissioners:
We are pleased to inform you that the Montana State University Historic District in Bozeman
was listed in the National Register on December 24, 2013.
The National Register is the nation's official list of historic properties worthy of preservation.
Listing in the National Register is an honor that provides wider recognition of a property's
historic values, and assists in preserving Montana's heritage. Certain benefits are available to the
owners of National Register properties through the Montana Historic Preservation Office. These
benefits include economic tax incentives for the rehabilitation of commercial or residential rental
historic properties, very Iimited grant funding (when made available by the National Park
Service, Department of the Interior), and technical assistance provided by the Preservation Office
staff.
Montana properties listed in the National Register also qualify for our Historic Places Sign
Program. Owners of listed properties receive financial assistance for the production of signs to
identify NRHP properties.
We thank you for your interest in Montana's heritage, and hope you will join us in supporting the
protection and preservation of Montana's historic places. If you have questions about the
National Register program or are in need of technical preservation assistance, please do not
hesitate to call upon us.
Sincerely,
ohn ughton,
National Register Program
