Our Mission

The original mission of the Anaconda Restoration Association (ARA) was to stop the deterioration of the historic Montana Hotel (painting, repairing brick, renovating spaces to lease to businesses, and acquire tenants for those spaces) with the intent for the hotel to become a sustainable historic landmark for the community of Anaconda.


In a recent survey in The Anaconda Leader, the Montana Hotel was ranked number 1 among readers ranking their favorite historic landmark in Anaconda.
