I was hoping to see the modular construction in action, but I’m out of town until the end of August. It could very well be done by then.

There is. It's the triangle site. I'll see if I can find that post or thread.

Darn. I always look forward to the updates.

Anyone get pictures of them installing the modules over the weekend?

Unlike with the first development, this is about the level of mediocrity I was expecting with a name like Attainable Homes.

As someone on reddit succinctly put it, it looks like a man camp on an O&G site.

Modular/prefab construction has a long ways to go if the feds are expecting it to be the solution to the housing crisis.

Even if they staggered depths on each side by offsetting the boxes a little it would help a ton. Imagine it with a pixelated pattern. The flat box shape does look work campish. This is the housing equivalent of temporary classroom trailers at schools.

I find the modular townhomes by avalon in Seton turned out much nicer.
