Breslin Builder’s Downtown Container Park project we provided design-build services on made the list! Working with Todd Lehman and Cre8Play, we were able to create a unique playground for both kids and and adults.
NPR’s All Things Considered did a feature on Downtown Project and Tony Hsieh, including our featured project, the Downtown Container Park. Always fun when a project gets some national attention.
The Downtown Container Park has been featured in another article, this one in Landscape Architect and Specifier News, September 2014 edition. Click on the PDF link for the article from Cre8Play’s website.
We’ve blogged about this already but the online link to the ERN Southwest article is finally available. Click the link below to read more about the award Breslin Builders received for the Downtown Container Park from ENR Southwest.
On Friday, November 14, 2014, Breslin Builders’ Todd McBrayer and Steve Moore, attended the ENR Southwest Best Projects 2014 awards luncheon at the Renaissance Hotel in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. ENR Southwest has recognized the Downtown Container Park as their Best Projects 2014 in the Office/Retail/Mixed-Use category.
Breslin Builders is honored and excited to add this award to others we have been part of the past, with one exception. This project is one were we provided both the design and the construction, delivering on the vision that Downtown Project and Tony Hsieh had for the corner of 7th and Fremont, and for the innovative use of shipping containers in a retail and mixed-use environment. It is not everyday that a company gets to do projects like the Downtown Container Park, a truly unique project in downtown Las Vegas, and one that we hope many other shipping container projects will use as their “research project” (just like Breslin Builders did with previous projects in the world).
We are grateful for the efforts of our entire team of engineers, designers, subcontractors, and employees that made this project possible.

While doing research for another project I stumbled upon this neat article about the center play area for the Downtown Container Park. It’s always fun to see how others view and review this project. Enjoy the article by clicking here.
Breslin Builders has recently been awarded the best new 2014 Office/Retail/Mixed-Use project for the ENR Southwest Best Projects for the Downtown Container Park project.

Breslin Builders is excited to be honored for the work we did on this project, which is a true design-build project from start to finish, providing both design and construction services.
ABC TV’s show The Chew visited the Downtown Container Park and recently spotlighted the project on their show. Check out the video with this link – http://abc.go.com/shows/the-chew/video/most-recent/_m_VDKA0_gz8wgm9t. Breslin Builders is grateful to have been both the designer and the contractor for this unique project.
Check out this link to IPME’s website for the Downtown Container Park. IPME was one of the many partners Breslin Builder’s worked with to bring this unique project to life. They were the masters behind the containers and the needed modifications.
It’s not everyday that something like this happens at one of your projects. Breslin Builders, which provided the design and construction for the project, is excited to see the the many different ways the Downtown Container Park is being used. I think it is fair to say this was never on our minds when we started the project. Enjoy!
The Downtown Container Park is featured in the February 2014 issue of the Parks & Rec Business magazine. Click here to see the February issue including the full article:
