“We’re taking a Forest Service lookout concept and blending it into the hillside,” he said. “They’ll offer amazing views.”

One thing on his wish list is a community garden, much like those run by Garden City Harvest all over Missoula.

“The concept is to assign individual plots to various owners of the condos and people in the apartments,” he said. “In our master design there is going to be community plot areas and we’re hoping to create an area for a greenhouse. It will be beautiful growing vegetables, and every Saturday if you want to sell extra product to the brewery, we would take that and have a farm-to-table concept on Saturday and Sunday. If you have extra going to waste we’ll take it and use it.”

He’s been working on the project for about four years.

“Finally after four years of hard work and a lot of money going out the door, this thing starts to come out of the ground,” he said. “It’s going to be pretty awesome. What a great spot. You go across the street and you’re at a great place to eat and across the highway you have Harvest Foods (grocery store) there, and with the bike path you can literally bike to Missoula.”
