What a remarkable year it’s been! At Great States Construction, we’ve transformed ambitious visions into reality across our commercial, industrial, and residential projects. Through strong partnerships with our clients and incredible teamwork, we’ve maintained our high standards while hitting crucial timelines and budgets. Let’s take a look at what we’ve accomplished together.
Winter 2024: Breaking Ground and Breaking Records
Our work on BLOC set the tone for 2024. Located at University and 17th in Fargo, this exciting project kicked off in January with the demolition of the previous strip mall. Despite those famous Fargo winter temperatures (you know the ones!), our dedicated team kept the momentum going strong. By May, we were already constructing the second floor – proof that a little cold weather can’t slow down a determined Great States crew.
Summer of Success
Summer brought both celebrations and significant progress. While BLOC reached its roofing milestone, we broke ground on our Farmstead Townhomes development in Billings, Montana. Our annual company picnic was bigger and better than ever, bringing together our hardworking team and their families for some well-deserved fun. From taco and ice cream trucks to inflatable attractions and yard games, the highlight was definitely our legendary bean bag tournament – who knew construction pros could be so competitive? As summer wrapped up, we kept the tradition alive with our end-of-season golf outing, giving everyone a chance to unwind and connect outside the job site.
A Fall to Remember
Fall marked a huge milestone with the grand opening of The Teddy, our stunning 54-unit modern residential community in the heart of Fargo. It’s so close to our main office, we consider it part of the neighborhood! We celebrated this achievement in style with an open house featuring custom-designed cookies that captured the spirit of this exciting new development.
Autumn Renovations
During the fall, we had the privilege of completing several tenant improvement projects, creating fresh new spaces for:
- Sage Family Chiropractic
- Froth Coffee House
- Red Door Pediatrics
- WaveMax
- Scooter’s Coffee
Each project represents our commitment to helping business owners and property managers bring their unique visions to life.
Looking Ahead: 2025 Even as winter settles back into Fargo, we’re energized about what’s coming next. We’re especially excited to announce upcoming projects including a new multi-family development in Billings and bringing Kwik Trip to our local community.
We couldn’t have achieved any of this without two essential groups: our wonderful clients who trust us with their dreams, and our incredible employees who bring their A-game every single day. As we look toward 2025, we remain committed to our core mission: building great communities with you.
Here’s to another year of turning possibilities into reality! 🎉
