After almost two weeks of designing, brainstorming, and new events, Morrison’s Addition becomes Intermodal.
So what is Intermodal?
Intermodal is a word that refers to a type of shipping container that can be moved from one mode of transport to another without unloading and reloading the contents of the container. Intermodal is also a creative attempt to transform a vacant lot in Eastown into a semi-permanent market constructed from recycled intermodal shipping containers.
Also, Intermodal is not site specific. It could pop up anywhere and seemingly overnight become part of the fabric of your neighborhood. Transforming and developing one blighted, vacant property at a time. That’s the idea. We’re damn excited about it.
Huge thanks to Dylan and the cool dudes over at Nice for the design work, Ray Brown for last minute coding, Erwin Erkfitz for making the container pretty, Lamar Construction for helping with the buildout, and all of you for the love.
Container is downtown right now by the way. Madcap is serving coffee out of it to all the TEDxGrandRapids attendees. If you’re in attendance, say hello.
