Steady as You Go

With a winter storm on the horizon, construction crews took about 12 hours to construct a three bedroom modular home at 7 Haystack Woods Road. Signature Building Systems delivered the four parts on massive tractor trailers on Dec. 22, 2025, but poor weather delayed assembly until Jan. 13. It took a massive crane, lasers, sheer muscle power and the occasional hammer to get the job done as illustrated in the photo above. Completion of interior work is expected to take about a month. The home, on land owned by the Foundation for Norfolk Living, is part of a 10-home affordable housing initiative overseen by the Litchfield County Center for Housing Opportunities. It is available to households with income up to 100 percent of area median income. More information is available from the Housing Collective at cho.thehousingcollective.org/.
