Housing for Haiti

Here is an article and photo of a converted shipping container which has been put into use here in Santo Domingo, in Arroyo Hondo.. a very exclusive neighborhood

Note how the elevated thatched roof is used to allow the heat generated by the metal to escape.

This would therefore be a viable form of construction for Haiti.

Get those container ships moving!!!
