The Gauge Apartments

The Gauge Modular Apartments in Durango Colorado showcase an innovative housing solution that combines sustainability, affordability, and modular construction. This project addresses Durango’s housing shortage by providing quality, eco-friendly living spaces while keeping costs manageable for residents. The apartments use of modular construction methods allowed faster build times and reduced labor, passing additional cost savings to the developer and the residents alike.

Each modular unit is prefabricated offsite by Guerdon Modular Buildings, undergoing strict quality checks that ensure durable construction and minimal waste. Once transported to Durango, these units were assembled  by the General Contractor, FCI Constructors. This process aligns with the project’s sustainability goals, as modular construction significantly reduces waste and lowers environmental impact.

The Gauge Apartments offer a range of layouts to meet different needs, each designed with comfort and energy efficiency in mind. These units feature open floor plans, energy-efficient appliances, and superior insulation, leading to lower utility bills. By focusing on modular methods, the project maximizes efficiency and value for future tenants. By using offsite construction, this project also substantially reduces embodied carbon.

Community integration plays a key role in the project’s design. Shared outdoor spaces and landscaped green areas foster social interaction and enhance Durango’s natural beauty. The apartments blend harmoniously with the landscape, making the complex an appealing addition to the area. The project location near a commercial activity zone in Durango allows residents easy access to neighborhood amenities.

Gauge Apartments represent a collaboration between developers, architects, and contractors. This project sets a benchmark for future developments, balancing affordability and sustainability in high-demand areas. Its innovative modular construction approach aligns with environmental responsibility while meeting the local need for accessible housing. This blend of efficiency, quality, and community focus makes Gauge Apartments a model for future housing solutions in Colorado.
