New modular condos going up in Belltown
SEATTLE -- A new seven story condominium complex in Seattle is going up like a stack of blocks.
Work is almost complete on the N-Habit: Belltown project at Third Avenue and Bell Street.
Construction crews are using a modular approach to the building, which takes about half the time of a normal job.
In this case, a couple of weekends.
The pre-constructed units already have plumbing, heating, cooling, appliances, paint and flooring in place.
They were trucked in from Oregon and stored at a nearby site until being stacked into place.
The 49 units will be on the market early 2014.
