Six-Million-Dollar Hotel Almost Complete in North Dakota's Coal Country

The Bismarck Tribune is reporting:
Stanton, you will hardly recognize your old school building when a $6 million transformation into a worker hotel is complete. 
The change from a ’50s-era building with long classroom wings into a hotel with front desk, 91 rooms, professional laundry, television lounge and lunch room is way beyond minor plastic surgery, and a lot faster.
Industrial Contractors Inc., of Bismarck, and its parent company, API Group, put the project on a very fast track starting in December.
The company purchased the building this fall to provide a local and stable housing source for the itinerant workers who come from all over for maintenance outages in Coal Country.
The linked article has a lot more about this project. It's quite incredible.

And it's not part of the Bakken.
