LAKE WORTH BEACH — The most talked about home in Lake Worth Beach these days is a shipping container.
Roger Bennett, a former public relations executive for Ford Motor Co., is building a two-bedroom, two-bath residence at 128 North F St. made from the same 40-foot steel boxes used to transport cargo by sea.
Since the project broke ground in May, Bennett said he's given around 60 tours of the home and drawn scores of comments on his Facebook page, where he gives near-daily updates of the construction's progress.
"They're coming all the time," said Bennett, 58. "People are just really curious because it's different. You see it and say, 'OK, that's not typical.'"
