The architect of the Redondo Beach house has his office just around the corner from me. I've met with him a couple of times and when it comes time to rebuild our house, he's going to do it with shipping containers through his new pre-fab company. Neat guy too. His own personal house is about 2 blocks away.

There's been talk in the past of modular condos; essentially a unit set up like a shipping container, with standardized attachment points. The 'buildings' would just be frames that could accept the containers. When you move they would just take a crane and pull your housing unit off your original building, toss it on the back of a flatbed, drive it to your new location, then hoist it onto your new building.

My father has used shipping containers as storage blocks for years!
