In August 2022, then Arizona Governor Doug Ducey issued an executive order to close a gap in the U.S.-Mexico border wall in Yuma with shipping containers. That wall was then torn down after a federal lawsuit and the state is trying to recover the money lost in the project.
In August 2022, then Arizona Governor Doug Ducey issued an executive order to close a gap in the U.S.-Mexico border wall in Yuma with shipping containers.That's because the federal government sued the state and Ducey agreed to remove them. Now more than a year later, they’re being sold at auction for merely a third of the price.The historic town of Bisbee now owns more than a dozen pieces of Arizona’s makeshift border wall. The shipping containers are now being used as storage facilities.
"They are rusted, dented, they do have operable doors, a roof, floor and obviously walls," Megan Rose with the Arizona Department of Administration explained.Shipping containers on Grand Avenue have been repurposed into affordable housing. Now, state officials say most government agencies that bought them are using them as storage.It remains to be seen if individuals will use them for affordable living.
Local builder, STEEL + SPARK, has been turning shipping containers into housing in Phoenix for nearly a decade.Stark warns buyers that it’s not as simple as purchasing an inexpensive container at auction and then having it dropped off in your backyard. As for the containers in Bisbee, they'll undergo a few modifications and will serve as giant closets. Bisbee officials say they’re happy with the price they paid.
