It includes Classical Revival, Art Deco, and Romanesque architecture. At 404 West Main Street, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places 36 years ago in 1988.[1]
A 1987 review of the building notes that it "is dominated by a large, rounded, projecting pavilion, which is actually a feature related to the Streamline Moderne style, rather than Art Deco which is the overall style of the building."[2]
GCHS was succeeded by the new Bozeman High School in 1958, located a mile west at 205 North 11th Avenue.
