10 Prefab Buildings Surprisingly Built in Less than a Month
The kindergarten originally had traditional stick-built structures, which builders replaced with steel modular containers in 2015. The renovation was completed in January 2016 and included 34 modules. Materials were carefully selected to surpass health and safety codes, with total costs coming to $1.5 million USD.
