For almost 40 years, the Community Design Center (CDC) has served Montanans by connecting cutting edge design with the people who need it. The CDC reaches out to non-profit organizations and government agencies to provide the visioning, planning and conceptual design skills necessary to create great communities. Recent projects include the Baker, Montana Boom Housing and Growth Strategy, the Bechler Soldier Station Housing in Yellowstone National Park, the St. Regis Highway 191 corridor study and the Irving Elementary School greenhouse in Bozeman.
