“Butte is not unique in its need for affordable housing—it’s a challenge we’re seeing across the region,” says Jeff Zimmerman, President of Fort + Home. “We’re excited to be part of the solution by delivering off-site constructed homes that reflect the spirit and charm of Butte, while offering a smart, modern approach to building.”

Constructed in the Fôrt Hōmes facility in Grand Junction, CO., these homes arrive nearly complete—dramatically reducing on-site construction noise, minimizing waste, and incorporating environmentally friendly materials. The reduced build time is especially impactful in cold-climate cities like Butte, where traditional construction timelines are limited by weather conditions.

Fort + Home is no stranger to the Butte community. In 2022, the company played a key role in the renovation of the beloved Historic O’Rourke building—earning recognition for its thoughtful restoration and dedication to preserving local character. This new housing development continues that legacy, with architectural details carefully designed to blend seamlessly into the historical fabric of Uptown Butte.

“Old-time charm meets modern innovation” might just be the motto for this project—bringing together durable, energy-efficient construction and timeless design to create something truly special for the Butte community.
