From Slabtown to Gallatin Gateway
First it was called Slabtown, so named for the vertical slab constructions of its board-and-batten homes. The name was later changed to Salesville, for early Montana settler Zachariah Sales. In 1927, the Milwaukee Railroad built the Gallatin Gateway Inn north of town where travelers gathered. Finally, after a significant spike in visits from travelers en route to nearby Yellowstone National Park, Gallatin Gateway was born. This picturesque neighborhood is nestled in the Gallatin River Valley and boasts views of wide open skies and the Rocky Mountains. EJ Daws, a fourth-gen Bozeman native and broker for Outlaw Realty, says "Gateway is perfect for those looking for a little more elbow room, some quiet from the bustle of growing Bozeman, and want to still be within a short drive from either Bozeman for events and daily necessities, and Big Sky for recreation, skiing and fishing."

Restaurants old and new, groceries and antique shopping
Local restaurant, Stacey’s Old Faithful Bar & Steakhouse holds an interesting backstory. In 1937, it was the Old Faithful Bar. As the beer was poured freely and the local ranchers and loggers danced, the upstairs operated as a brothel. In 1963, the establishment was bought by Montana native Stacey Crosby. Although the brothel was shuttered and the bar was renamed, this local watering hole is still known for its cold beer, honky-tonk music and bustling wooden dance floor. At The Jump Restaurant and Bar, there is always live music, dancing, trivia games and bingo nights. The Garden Barn sells plants, flowers and gardening wares. The Antique Barn is the largest antique mall in the state and is home to Junk-Fest, annually held the Saturday before Father’s Day. Grocery runs require 11-mile drives to Town & Country Foods and Rosauers Supermarkets in west Bozeman.
