The Guthrie Workforce Housing

Project Role:

I acted as the Senior Project Architect from the beginning of entitlement/schematic design phase until 50% CDs. My duties included coordination with all consultants, stakeholders / clients, authorities having jurisdiction, and the general contractor. As well, I acted as the production architect in a design/build framework within a lean team which varied between two and five total team members during the design and construction phases of the project. 

The strengths I developed on the project include detail knowledge and coordination of:

  • The Montana Building Code
  • City of Bozeman Planning Code
  • City of Bozeman Historic Preservation
  • Type  VA construction over non-stacking spaces
  • Cold climate envelope design
  • Workforce / efficient space design
  • EV charging requirements
  • Snow removal and winter weather space and structural design

The Guthrie is a 111 unit workforce housing near downtown Bozeman, Montana. The site take advantage of the City of Bozeman's density incentives for housing projects near the downtown that provide 50% affordable housing units.
