Emerald Ridge | Williston, ND

Situated on about 230 acres in a quiet country location one mile from main street in Watford City, ND, the slogan of the Emerald Ridge apartments states that they are the place to “Lease a Lifestyle”. People move to North Dakota for great work opportunities in oil country but they stay for the recreation, comfort, lush rich hills and beautiful sunset views from the balcony.

As part of a community-style, family –friendly development, Emerald Ridge offers spacious, high quality studio, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments. Each apartment includes 1 oversized (site built) garage stall per bedroom, full bath per bedroom, patio, central air conditioning, and community center park facilities.

As demands for housing grow in the heart of oil country, more and more developers are turning to modular technology to help meet those demands in a smarter and more efficient manner. The Emerald Ridge apartments are no different. Developers chose modular technology for this project so they could bring it to market as quickly as possible. They originally had a modular design which called for 54 modules per building but modular manufacture’s design team was able to work with and modify their design and allow for the same number of apartment units to be built using only 45 modules per building. This new design brought a higher level of efficiency to the project. Two obvious places the effects were felt were in reduced craning costs and a reduced cost of shipping as 54 fewer trucks were required to transport the project.

The finished project features six, three story buildings with 36 units in each building.
Construction began in the fall of 2014. Modules were transported to the site throughout the winter. Crane setting of the units began the first week of 2015 with tenants moving in shortly after.
