Ten-Unit 3,800 sq ft Permanent Modular Dormitory Barged to Nantucket for Miacomet Golf Course

The Nantucket Islands Land Bank needed seasonal staff housing that would pass the Historic District Commission and survive island logistics. Triumph Modular delivered a ten-unit, 3,800 sq ft permanent modular dormitory on a full foundation, complete with shared kitchen, living/dining, and laundry – all transported by barge and installed with zero delays.

The Challenge

Build a large, code-compliant staff dormitory on Nantucket with strict historic review, limited ferry/barge windows, and no room for months of on-island construction chaos.

Solution: 10 Modular Units Shipped by Barge

Ten factory-built modular units were loaded onto a barge in Hyannis, floated to Nantucket, off-loaded, craned onto a full foundation, and stitched together in weeks. The finished modular building looks custom coastal while delivering turnkey housing for golf course staff.
