For auto enthusiasts, the race track is the ultimate playground. As this story on CNN.com shows, Atlanta Motorsports Park has pushed that experience to the red line. Cut to 2:00 in the video to see the modular race garages our Sports and Entertainment Team built. They’re a great example of what modular can do.
Rising enrollments, decreasing budgets and natural disasters have America’s schools facing difficult times. When it comes to adding new teaching space quickly and affordably, modular construction offers temporary and permanent solutions that get students back to class sooner, even on tight budgets.

Residents and businesses across New York and New Jersey are still reeling from the effects of Hurricane Sandy. Moonachie Township in Bergen County, New Jersey is no different. Four feet of water flooded much of the town, including Robert L. Craig Elementary. The school was badly damaged and not fit for teaching.
Administrators called ModSpace and less than a month later, the school reopened in temporary modular classrooms. It’s a good story for ModSpace, and a great one for the children of Moonachie.
Watch the video below to hear the school’s principal tell the story in her own words.
The ModSpace HQ is headed to Hollywood. Well, Minnesota actually. Nonetheless, the ultimate onsite office is making its television debut this weekend on Hometime, one of the longest running home improvement programs on TV. This season the Hometime team is building a new home in the Minneapolis area. They asked the HQ mobile office to help out for the duration as their onsite project headquarters and a warm refuge from frosty temps.
The Hometime premiere airs this Saturday, February 16th on PBS. Check your local listings for times.
