WJBF:

An entrepreneur from New Mexico has a creative idea for low-cost housing.

Albuquerque home builder, Brian McCarthy, and three partners, have built a prototype house out of a standard 320-square-foot shipping container. Each small home would contain a kitchen, a bathroom with a toilet, and a sleeping area.

The partners plan to convert about 3,000 containers into homes, next year, and sell them for about $8,000 apiece.
