What a fantastic idea: using storage units as play spaces!
Designers and builders of storage units realized that people were using these rental spaces for more stashing their boxes full of junk, so they took the idea and ran with it. The units by GarageTown are perfect for kid play or for adult play. GarageTown units are actually condos - with each owner getting deed to the space they occupy.
Implications - Since the recent economic downturn consumers are constantly looking for ways to maximize the use and functionality of their possessions. Businesses that offer efficient ways to use a wide range of products will appeal to a wide clientele.
