A Manhattan Penthouse Made out of a Shipping Container [Architecture]

When a Manhattan resident needed another bedroom, the only real obvious option was to building up, using a recycled shipping container . Not only did he get monetary savings, but he gained a view of the Empire State Building inside the process.

Measuring 6 meters in length, the container was changed into the most recent master suite but in addition turned the scrappy roof into a pleasing patio area. While the architect Lot-ek hasn’t made the whole costs public, I imagine it’s one of the vital cheapest penthouses inside the whole of Manhattan-and with a view of the Empire State Building in addition!
