The Northeast Entrance Station to Yellowstone National Park, in Park County, Montana, is a rustic log building that serves its purpose admirably. Designed by the National Park Service Branch of Plans and Design under the direction of Thomas Chalmers Vint, it was built in 1935. The entrance station straddles U.S. Route 212 (US 212) west of Cooke City-Silver Gate. A combined ranger station and residence is located nearby. All buildings were constructed by George Larkin of Gardiner, Montana.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://wyoshpo.state.wy.us/NationalRegister/Site.aspx?ID=492 )〕 ==Description==
The Northeast Entrance Station spans the center of the road into the park from Cooke City. A central block housing the office and two checking windows is flanked by smaller blocks, each housing a checking window and joined to the main block by a long gabled roof that spans the ensemble. Each block is marked by a cross gable proportional to the block's size. The walls are lodgepole pine logs cut within the park with saddle-jointed corner, randomly beveled. Log poles support the shingled roof. The entrance station rests on a local stone foundation. A stone chimney for the heating stove projects above the central block. Earth floors have been replaced with concrete slabs.〔 and 〕 The ranger residence is a matching log building, rectangular in plan with a small extension housing an office. The residence is one story with seven rooms. Unusually for its time it was insulated during construction to try to prevent ice from building up on the roof.〔
