The southeast corner of the intersection of U.S. 93 and Montana 40 has been cleared over the past few weeks, making room for Alpine 93/40, a mixed-use apartment project. 

The development agreement proposes 210 residential apartment units and no more than 15,000 square feet of commercial space. Ten percent of the units will be deed restricted.
