LEARN MORE

The historic Livingston Depot was built in 1902 as the Northern Pacific Railroad's original launching point for travel to Yellowstone National Park.  Although the Northern Pacific first introduced service to the Park through Livingston in 1883, the third Depot completed in 1902, reflected the apex of a busy and graceful age.  It was designed by Reed & Stem, the original architects for New York City's Grand Central Station, to be a worthy showcase. 

Its majestic colonnade and ornate architectural detail greeted rail travelers until 1979, when AMTRAK suspended passenger service to southern Montana.  The Burlington Northern, the successor to the Northern Pacific, briefly used it for offices until donating it to the City of Livingston in 1985. 

Two years and a thorough restoration later, the Depot Center opened under oversight of the the Livingston Depot Foundation, a member-based non-profit dedicated to preserving this monument to the area's rich past in ongoing service into the future.  ​

The Livingston Depot Center is a lively intersection of past and present in the heart of downtown Livingston.​
