Williston, North Dakota, the epicenter of the Bakken shale boom, has experienced exponential growth over the last decade. Technological advances in oil and natural gas extraction industries, including horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, have contributed immensely in the quest of energy independence for our country. “Boomtown, US” was in desperate need of a new airport to support increased air traffic. Those of us flying in and out of Williston can attest to that!

Several dozen homeless people chosen by outreach workers will enter a cluster of new trailers close to downtown’s historic El Pueblo this month, the primary step toward getting them into permanent housing.

When National Psychiatric Care and Rehabilitation Services (NPCRS) needed to expand their specialized inpatient treatment program in Manteca, CA, they contacted Mobile Modular (formerly Design Space Modular Buildings) to provide an administration building to facilitate this expansion.

They operate 7 in-patient treatments centers throughout Northern California.

Construction began in 2019 for Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to build a new headquarter facility and a parking structure for its Airport Police unit.  The project was a large $180 million 2 year project led by long time Mobile Modular (formerly Design Space Modular Buildings) partner General Contractor who it selected to deliver 48’x120’ (8 floor multiplex), 10’x40’ Restroom Trailer, and a 12’x44’ singlewide mobile office trailer to be used during the job.
