The Walsh Group and community partners advance construction of new Toby's House Crisis Nursery facility
GREAT FALLS, Mont. - The Walsh Group and its community partners continue to make steady progress on construction of the new Toby's House Crisis Nursery facility in Great Falls.
Over the past several months, the project has achieved several significant milestones. The building exterior is nearing completion, with the standing-seam metal roof, exterior siding, windows, and exterior utility installations now complete.
Inside the facility, crews have completed installation of the in-slab radiant heating system and the attic dry-pipe fire sprinkler system. Interior wall framing is currently underway, with electrical, HVAC, fire sprinkler, communications, and security rough-in work scheduled to begin next week.
Thanks to the dedication, collaboration, and craftsmanship of the construction team and community partners, the project remains on schedule for a late August 2026 ribbon-cutting ceremony and move-in celebration.
