Cut Bank Ranger Station Historic District
Location: N side Cut Bank Creek, Glacier NP, East Glacier, Montana Coordinates: 48°36′22″N 113°22′34″W / 48.60611°N 113.37611°WCoordinates: 48°36′22″N 113°22′34″W / 48.60611°N 113.37611°W Built: 1917 Architect: National Park Service; Civilian Conservation Corps Architectural style: Other Governing body: National Park Service MPS: Glacier National Park MPS NRHP Reference#: 95001566 Added to NRHP: January 19, 1996[1] The Cut Bank Ranger Station in Glacier National Park was one of the first buildings built in Glacier by the National Park Service. Built in 1917, the design is in keeping with park hotel structures built by the Great Northern Railway in a Swiss chalet style that predated the fully developed National Park Service Rustic style.[2]
The station was manned year-round until the late 1930s when it became a summer-only station. It was one of the first National Park Service-built facilities in Glacier. The design pre-dates the standardized National Park Service Rustic style, using a similar but simplified construction technique resembling pioneer construction. It is similar to the Saint Mary Ranger Station.[3]
A barn was added in 1935 by Civilian Conservation Corps labor, along with a woodshed. Both structures were built to adaptations of Park Service standard designs.[3]
