The Highline Apartments
2020
Project Type
Multi-Family Residential Development
Overview
Compass Construction proudly completed The Highline Apartments — a major multi-family development located in Columbia Falls, Montana. Delivered in two carefully coordinated phases, The Highline added 180 modern rental units to the growing community, addressing the increasing demand for high-quality housing in the Flathead Valley.
Compass managed every stage of development, from infrastructure and site work through vertical construction and final finishing. The project required precise scheduling, phased turnover strategies, and quality assurance across multiple building sites operating simultaneously — a challenge Compass met with proven expertise and attention to detail.
Project Highlights

The project was delivered across two major phases, requiring Compass to manage simultaneous timelines, site logistics, and occupancy transitions without disrupting nearby residential areas.

Each building consists of 36 rental units with a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts — all designed for livability, efficiency, and long-term durability.

Despite tight market demands and seasonal construction challenges in Montana, Compass maintained a commitment to craftsmanship, energy efficiency, and regulatory compliance across all five buildings.
— Community Impact
The Highline significantly expanded rental housing availability in Columbia Falls, helping support the town’s growth and economic development during a period of increased local demand.
Outcome
Through expert project management and a hands-on approach to every detail, Compass Construction delivered The Highline Apartments on time and to the highest standards of quality.
