Modular Mountain Retreat Project
Berkshires Architecture, Shakespeare & Co, and Structured Wiring (HA1423)
The Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts, the location of the Modular Mountain Retreat project house, are known for being a popular tourist spot, as well as a thriving artist community. Before heading to the modular home project site, Bob visits one of the area’s artistic centers, Shakespeare and Company. Director and Founder Tina Packer gives Bob a tour of the grounds and an overview of the company’s various theater programs. Packer and Bob visit with some Plimoth Plantation workers who are doing some authentic thatch roofing on a nearby cart shed. Returning to the project house, Bob takes a final tour of the interior. KitchenAid appliances have been installed, as well as Bellawood pre-finished flooring. Woodport interior doors have been hung, and Bob reviews how the structured wiring for the house was installed back at the factory in Pennsylvania.
