Summary[edit]
Description225 E Main - Bozeman Montana - 2013-07-09.jpg |
English: Looking east past a vacant lot at the American Legion Building (225 East Main Street) in Bozeman, Montana.
The original date of construction is not clear, but the building was originally a church. In 1945, the American Legion bought the structure for its post headquarters. It was extensively remodeled in 1949 by omnipresent local architect Fred Willson. Willson used blond brick and glass block to transform the facade, and make it reflective of the International Style then in vogue. It was the only International Style building in the city. Shortly after 8:30 AM on March 5, 2009, a gas main explosion and fire destroyed five historic buildings on the north side of the 200 block of East Main Street in Bozeman. Among those buildings destroyed were: • 209-215 E. Main, the Ellis, Davis and Sperling Building (a single building that looked like three, and which contained the Rocking R Bar, Pickle Barrel restaurant, and Boodles bar), constructed in 1929; • 219 E. Main, the Joyce Theatre (which contained the Montana Trails Gallery -- where the explosion occurred), constructed in 1889-1890; • 221-223 E. Main, the Odd Fellows (IOOF) Hall (which contained the Lily Lu children's toy store and Tolstedt Architects), constructed in 1891; and • 225 E. Main, the American Legion Building (Gallatin Post bar and Legion hall), constructed in 1949. The Osborne Building (229 to 233 E. Main) was severely damaged by the explosion. The 1882 structure -- which previously housed -- Starky's Deli, Great Rocky Mountain Toy Company, and several apartments -- was demolished in April 2010. The blast breached the wall of the American Legion Building, and the roof collapsed into the basement. Fire destroyed the rest of the structure. All of the Legion's ceremonial flags, veterans' memorabilia, and keepsakes were lost. Walker Construction built the new structure, which was completed in 2010. The bar was moved from the cellar to the ground floor, and a banquet hall and catering kitchen exist on the second floor. The Legion's 1946 neon blue-and-gold backlit sign miraculously survived the blast. It was refurbished and mounted on the second floor of the new building. The vacant lot is where 221-223 E. Main used to exist. The owners have not yet decided what to rebuild there. |
