Top 5 Unique Pole Barn Buildings by Lester

November 13, 2018

At Lester Buildings, we’ve created some amazing, unique buildings! Today we’ll share some of these buildings with you and give you a peek into the types of projects that have stood out for us. There have been many over the years, but here are a few of our favorites.

1. The largest Lester Building to date – a Dairy Freestall Barn

This massive dairy building is the largest post-frame building we’ve built to date. It covers nearly 19 acres and is home to 8,500 cows – all under one roof. It’s an astounding operation and we have been honored to build several like this. With 1.6 million square feet of concrete, 556 rafters and a freestall that spans a quarter of a mile, this building still has us talking long after its completion.

2. Wedding Venues

Many of our buildings serve several purposes, including hosting weddings. Rustic barn wedding venues are sought after for today’s brides-to-be. Whether it’s at your parent’s newly-built pole barn or at a dedicated wedding venue, a Lester Building can accommodate all types of weddings.

3. Car Condominiums

For motorsports enthusiasts who have outgrown their garage, they are opting to buy a car condominium where they can have more space for their tinkering, socialize with other gearheads and have a living space for entertaining. Car condominiums have been growing in popularity since the early 2000s. Some share walls with other condos; others are individual buildings. One thing they have in common – they are decked out!

4. Residential

From year-round homes to weekend getaways, we build them all. Our residential buildings are versatile with open floor plans and limitless custom options. They go up faster than traditional construction and they easy to insulate, making them energy efficient. Like all of our buildings, our homes are backed by a Lifetime Structural Warranty because they are engineered and built to last.

Wineries are as unique as the wines they produce. From full glass overhead doors, to inviting custom wood doors, every winery we build has its own personality and style.
