Central to Missoula’s history, The Heart of Missoula Neighborhood is a bustling center of commerce and activity, as well as home to many residents who relish being in the middle of it all. There are grand historic homes along the east-west streets of Pine, Spruce, and Alder.
This neighborhood captures a sense of community that pre-dates the 1940s and ‘50s Norman Rockwell vision. This dense area of homes and commerce harkens back to the old Western settlement where community was everywhere you turned and your grocer, banker, and barkeeper were also your neighbors.
