"Two months after breaking ground, if that’s even the right term, the
District’s first residential building made entirely out of the giant
metal boxes is finished in Brookland.
Designed by Travis Price Architects, the three-story, four apartment unit development at 3305 Seventh St. NE was envisioned as a 'new,
bold, ecological, recyclable kit of parts housing module, and to help
make use of one of America's biggest problems: No exports of goods —
700,000 (and counting) sea containers left in our sea ports'."
This is a good use of a cheap resource, but I wonder about sound inside. How is it for noise insulation? Waiting to hear.
