đď¸ A Shipping Container Wonderland
No jokeâDetroit Shipping Company (DSC) is built from repurposed shipping containers, stacked and styled into a modern hangout spot that feels like a Pinterest board came to life.
Each container houses a different vendor or conceptâthink of it like a micro-neighborhood filled with global eats, artsy vibes, and strong cocktails. Thereâs a laid-back industrial feel that somehow still feels cozy. And whether you're posted up inside one of the cozy nooks or lounging on the open-air patio, the energy is always buzzing.
