Most apartment projects in Utah take 18–24 months to complete. But what if you could deliver faster and with higher quality?
That’s exactly what Irontown Modular just achieved with the completion of Utah’s first-ever modular apartment complex: The Other Side Academy Prep School Apartments, located in Salt Lake City’s historic district.
Project Overview:
- Size: 33,860 sq. ft., four-story building
- Units: 32 two-bedroom apartments (~600 sq. ft. each)
- Features: Gathering rooms, elevator, cassette AC system
- Exterior/Interior: Brick + Hardi siding, fiberglass + storefront windows, commercial-grade interiors
Speed & Efficiency
The modular process delivered this project from factory start to occupancy in just 12 months—cutting typical timelines nearly in half. Only 7 months of onsite construction were required.
Quality & Precision
Unlike traditional builds, the 29 modules were manufactured in a climate-controlled factory.
- 551 quality checks per module
- Double structure design for superior soundproofing
- No exposure to rain, snow, vandalism, or theft
Industry Impact
This project proves multifamily developers can reduce risk, accelerate delivery, and still exceed Class A quality standards.
The Future of Multifamily Housing
The completion of this project is more than a milestone—it’s a roadmap for developers across Utah and the western U.S. Modular construction delivers the speed, certainty, and quality that today’s housing market demands.👉 Interested in building your own modular multifamily project? Contact us today.
