More on those new Shipping Containers near Brookland in Stronghold – It’s Boombox DC ” an inspired artist/studio space”

IMG_2604

Yesterday we learned about the new shipping container garage in Brookland. Turns out it’s a lot more than a garage and it’s in Stronghold – Boombox DC:

“Boombox DC is a private effort among friends and neighbors to create and then use an inspired artist/studio space, and we would like to share the concept with others.

It is not a profit-making venture and thus we will not offer services or rent out space, but would love for you to come by and see it once it’s up.

Boombox DC will be built out of two used 45-foot High Cube Shipping Containers that will be merged together lengthwise, then divided up between a 20 foot garage and a 25 foot artist studio.

The structure and use fully complies will all DC Zoning regulations for a “Garage/Artist Studio” and we have valid and comprehensive DCRA building permits fully approved. Everything about this is legit. There will be no business activity on the site.

We hope to be done by the end of the summer and once the fence is back up and the landscaping is done we hope many will be more pleased with the design.”
