Brynjulf Rivenes (July 4, 1874 – December 21, 1929), generally known as B. Rivenes, was a Norwegian-American architect practicing in Miles City, a city in sparsely settled eastern Montana.[1]

Biography

Rivenes was born in Norway in 1874, and was educated there. In 1904, he and his brother David immigrated to the United States, settling in Glendive, Montana. In 1905, Brynjulf went to the state capitol in Helena where he worked as a draftsman for architect and engineer John Hackett Kent of Bell & Kent. He then returned to Glendive, where he and his brother established an architect's office.[2] [3]

After a brief practice in Glendive, Rivenes moved his office to Miles City in 1906,[4] with David staying behind to operate the Glendive office as a branch. At the time, Miles City was undergoing a period of major economic growth, and Rivenes had the opportunity to design many of the new buildings that the expanding city required.

Rivenes practiced as an architect in Miles City until his unexpected death four days before Christmas of 1929.[5] In order to raise money, what remained of the business was sold off.[6]

Architectural works

Other works in the Merrill Avenue Historic District by Rivenes (with unknown dates) are:

  • Krug Building,[16]
  • Rivenes-West Hardware Company Building,[16]
  • First National Bank Building (since remodeled), and[16]
  • Dion Brother Building (1910s remodeling).[16]
