Adaptive Reuse in Billings, MT at U-Haul Moving & Storage at Main St
Building History
Tractor & Equipment Co.(T&E) is a machinery and engine parts company that prides themself on becoming an authorized Caterpillar® Dealer in 1929. The company originally had roots in Sidney, Montana, but has now grown to multiple stores servicing central and eastern Montana, western North Dakota, and northern Wyoming. Today T&E reports that they are still run by third and fourth generations of the founding family. U-Haul acquired the The Tractor & Equipment Company building in 1982. Adaptive reuse building conversions allow U-Haul to promote infill development to meet citizens’ needs while preserving the natural resources and land normally required for new construction. Adaptive reuse also allows resources to be focused on integrating environmentally thoughtful features into the existing building rather than creating waste in the form of demolition and using valuable resources for new construction.
