Project Overview

6 West is a new development of 120 apartment units located in Edwards, Colorado.  The project is a series of ten buildings laid out on a sloping site at the bottom a mountain valley.

The project is composed of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments all completed with systems built construction.  All living units are totally fabricated off-site in a factory, shipped to site, and stitched together on top of a site-built foundation.  This process, which 359 is now using extensively, reduces construction costs and time on site in mountain environments where building seasons are short and labor forces are small.
