We've seen things from ceramic studios, art studios, a lot of gyms.
It sort of seems like anything you can think of, people have turned their garages into during this pandemic.
Thanks so much for having me.
Well, since the pandemic started, we've all been a little stir crazy at times.
And it seems like people's garages are sort of a big focus of a lot of the renovation projects that are going on.
One of the things I learned in reporting this story is a lot of people have garages that they don't use for parking.
During the pandemic, a lot of people realized, hey, I have this available space that I'm not maximizing.
Let's do something creative with it.
A lot of these garage conversions ended up being a safe way for people to entertain friends and family during the pandemic, especially during the early part when people weren't vaccinated and you didn't feel safe being indoors.
A lot of these garages really lent themselves to
being able to socialize because you could open the garage door, right?
Or you could open the windows.
And so you wouldn't be just out in the elements, but you'd have enough air circulation that you felt like it was okay to have a drink with a friend.
And a lot of folks told me that that was sort of a lifesaver for people during the pandemic, just being able to come together at a time when everybody was sort of trapped in their houses.
Well, we are seeing all kinds of things.
People, you know, ranging from just an accessory dwelling unit with another bedroom, maybe for mom or the adult kids, to the very practical, you know, home office, right, which we all need right now, or place for kids to do remote school.
But some people are getting really creative.
A lot of people have made bars in their garages.
I guess the pandemic just brought that out in people.
But we've seen things from ceramic studios, art studios, a lot of gyms.
