THE BUILDING OVERVIEW

Introducing the Purpose Center, a stunning renovation of one of Pocatello’s iconic historic buildings. 

The historic Petersen Building, originally built in 1913 and owned by T.C. Martin, hosted Petersen Furniture from 1921 until the 1990s.  In the late 1990s it was acquired and turned into Scott’s Ski and Sport.  The Purpose Center is a reimagining of an architectural classic that remains true to its 20th century design while creating a warm and inviting space for generations to come.

BUILDING AMENITIES

From our ground-level Purpose Tea shop to our private penthouse executive suite, the Purpose Center is thoughtfully re-imagined from the ground up.

Our Facilities

From fine dining at the Yellowstone, to pub fare at one of Pocatello’s many micro-breweries, you’ll find food to satisfy any palette within walking distance.

Visit nearby parks like Centennial Park, take a stroll on the Greenway Trail System, or bike the hundreds of miles of trails on the City Creek Trail System.

If you enjoy boutique shopping, downtown Pocatello offers an abundance of clothing, antique and gift shopping throughout.

Just outside of downtown Pocatello is top quality tertiary care at the Portneuf Medical Center.  PMC supports the Portneuf Foundation and its public Wellness Complex.

Within a short walk of the Purpose Center you’ll find the Portneuf River, which offers the opportunity for kayaking and paddle boarding all the way through Pocatello.
