The Modular Mobilization Coalition recently delivered the first multifamily modular construction project in the Petworth area of Washington, D.C. The Petworth Modo project consists of 44 modular units that will be stacked into a five-story building containing 16 apartments. The building is anticipated to be move-in ready by the end of 2020. The modular project is expected to be completed in 10 months compared to a 12-16-month timeline using traditional site-built construction methods.
The MMC is a collaboration of modular manufacturers who collectively service developers nationwide. The national network of 15 modular construction companies is the first of its kind and works together to compress construction timelines, lower project risk and offer competitive pricing by leveraging the power of their network.
The Modo project is located on a triangle-shaped lot at a five-point intersection in a high-density, urban location. Early planning with modular design helped the architect, ECA, and broader team to mitigate potential challenges and prove that anything is possible with modular construction. With a technology-based system fully integrating engineering, manufacturing and construction, the MMC’s nationwide modular solution is changing multifamily construction.
