A reader (who happens to work for Illy Coffee) sent us this tip after reading about the shipping container homes.
Although we’ve seen the Push Button House online, we didn’t realize that we’ll get to see it in our own backyard come November. It will be set up as a cafe in Columbus Circle from November 28-December 29. It is meant to show Illy’s commitment to sustainability, from coffee production to development and environment.
