Drive past the Village Cooperative of Billings today and you will see a very different building than the one framed up earlier this spring.

The project has now moved past another major milestone, just in time for the weather to start turning colder.

The roof is completed, windows and exterior doors are in, and siding is nearly done. Those are crucial steps in separating the interior of the building from the exterior, allowing trade partners to move inside and keep working without the weather dictating the construction schedule.

That is particularly important with Montana’s often quickly changing winter weather only a few short months away.

As the finishing touches are put on the exterior, crews are wasting no time moving forward inside. Plumbing and electrical are being finished in each of the community’s 58 units, with initial insulation installation following close behind. Each step of construction makes it a bit easier to imagine the layout and spaces that make each home unique.

The project is on track to be complete in spring 2027.

As work continues in Billings, the Village Cooperative in Bismarck is just getting started. Read more about that project and our other multi-family construction projects through the region.

About The Village Cooperative

The Village Cooperative in Billings is a 58-unit senior living community built for active adults who want home ownership without the day-to-day maintenance of a single-family home. Developed by Real Estate Equities Development and constructed by Great States Construction, the project brings a different housing option to the Billings market.

The three-story building is designed around one-level living, with homes ranging from approximately 900 to more than 1,500 square feet.
