The Last Days of LaVilla

[Houseboat Mike]

If I were king for a day I'd put these all along that vacant lot between Water st. and Bay st. near the convention center. Partnering with JaxPort and getting some discounted shipping containers to turn them into affordable apartments and retail space would be awesome. It could be a really hip new look for Jax that even pays some homage to us being a river city and the importance of our port. Could be really cool!

There are so many awesome uses for these things!

How well would these hold up in tropical storm/hurricane force winds? Absent of a LOT of strapping, wouldn't they be just as, (if not more) vulnerable than mobile homes?

Not if they were welded together.  They are much heavier than a mobile home too.
