The idea of transforming older buildings into high-end living or office space has caught on big in a lot of larger cities, including Fargo-Moorhead. Now, a small town 60 miles to the west of F-M is getting in on the action. The 20-unit Pinnacle Condominiums, described as luxury homes, is being built in the former Mr. Spindle factory just off west Main Street in Valley City. The building was empty for about four years after Bob Matthews relocated his decking supply company from there to south Fargo. He’s one of the developers repurposing the building, turning an abandoned eyesore into a new housing option for this community of 6,700 people. “We want it to be the nicest place in town,” Matthews said. The condos will feature two bedrooms, two bathrooms, granite kitchen countertops, custom cabinets, a walk-in closet and a balcony or patio. Each unit has its own heating and cooling system and washer and dryer, and residents will have a parking space in a heated garage.
