Northeast, a popular neighborhood in Bozeman, Montana, is known for its artistic spirit and strong community, and it has historically been a home for Bozeman’s artists. The neighborhood is anchored by a small shopping center that combines condos with local businesses, along with a non-profit art gallery called Tinworks Art, locally known as just Tinworks.
The neighborhood has small artisanal businesses, a popular coffee shop and a bakery. “This shopping area is anchored by Treeline Coffee Roasters and Wild Crumb bakery, so other small businesses can benefit from the foot traffic,” says Matt Saporito, owner of Brick Bound, a luxury leather goods store across the street from Treeline Coffee Roasters. People often head to Downtown Bozeman to a stretch of businesses and restaurants along Main Street. The Bozeman Co-Op, a grocery store with a popular lunch bar, is just one of the area's options. “People want to be close to downtown.” says Ryan Martello, a Realtor with Realty One Group Peak, and Bozeman resident. "It's a pretty happening place." Restaurants like Revelry and Blackbird are popular with the lunch and dinner crowd, and once evening sets in and those restaurants close, bars like Plonk and 1864 open their doors and activate Bozeman’s nightlife.
Northeast has a variety of single-family homes and condos to choose from. Depending on the age and condition, 1,000-foot properties can sell for $600,000 to $1 million and tend to be new traditional and custom builds. Newer and larger homes sell for $1 million to $1.5 million and tend to have wood, industrial, and stone features on the front façade. Historical homes, usually farmhouses, often fall into this price range, and many were built in the early 1900s. Condos are mostly located within two blocks of downtown Bozeman, or in the neighborhood’s small typically on the top floor.
Beall Park is home to a playground, a recreation center and a distinctive sculpture of a frog that’s popular for photoshoots. The park is favored for hanging out in the neighborhood, but many residents like to get out into nature. Hiking is huge in Bozeman, and there are enough trails within an hour of the city to keep a hiker busy for a lifetime. The “M,” Bozeman’s iconic trail, is about four miles from Northeast. The trail ends at a pile of rocks shaped in an M, created by Montana State University students in 1915. It's so big that people can see it from downtown Bozeman, about six miles away. The parking lot is usually packed, but bike paths that lead all the way to the trailhead are one of the perks of living in Northeast. “Northeast is a good side of town to live in if you want to live without a car,” says Saporito. For a day trip on Saturday or a few hours of relaxation on Friday after work, people head to Fairy Lake. It’s about an hour from Bozeman, and the blue water is open for swimming, paddleboarding and lounging on tubes. The area around Fair Lake is also popular for camping. Sacagawea Peak is a four-mile trail for hiking and running that starts at Fair Lake. Early-morning exercisers might see goats climbing up and down the trail, and goat fur is often snagged on bushes and branches up and down the route.
Tinworks Art offers a variety of summer programs for kids, and art events for all ages. Located in a former tin shop, it only operates from spring to early fall, because the building doesn’t have heat. Tinworks hosts art exhibits that rotate yearly and focuses on how Bozeman has changed culturally and agriculturally. The space also hosts musical artists who perform in a small event space usually packed with locals from Northeast and all over the city. “Historically, Northeast has been the artistic neighborhood in Bozeman,” says Emma Stein, Tinworks’ director of development.” Tinworks offers community programming and art exhibitions aimed at uniting Bozeman’s community. “Art always opens another space to find connectivity,” says Jenny Moore, Tinworks director. The Northeast Neighborhood Association also hosts community activities like potlucks, often held in this space.
Northeast is served by Bozeman Public Schools, which has an A rating on Niche. Hawthorne Elementary School has an A rating and Chief Joseph Middle School has an A-minus rating. Bozeman High School has an A rating and has popular athletic programs in basketball and football.
Bozeman is served by Streamline Bus, which has stops all over the city. In Northeast, stops are located along North Rouse Avenue, East Tamarack and West Main Street. While the bus system is ideal for getting around the city, most Bozemanites get around with cars and expect to drive an hour or more to reach a campground, hiking trail or nearby city, usually via Interstate 90. The Bozeman International Airport is in Belgrade, about 10 miles away, and the Bozeman Health Deaconess Regional Medical Center is about a mile away.
