The Moms market building was built in 1980 and supplied groceries for just under four years. U-Haul acquired the empty building in 1984 to provide truck sharing and self storage to the Little Rock community. Adaptive reuse building conversions allow U-Haul to promote infill development to meet citizens’ needs while preserving the natural resources and land normally required for new construction. Adaptive reuse also allows resources to be focused on integrating environmentally thoughtful features into the existing building rather than creating waste in the form of demolition and using valuable resources for new construction.

Serving U-Haul customers since 1984, this facility was built through adaptive reuse of an abandoned building. Adaptive reuse promotes infill development in an effort to strengthen communities, with the following benefits achieved at this site: 

• 41.5 tons of metal manufacturing & transportation prevented
• 797 tons of new concrete pours avoided
• 839 tons of construction and demolition debris prevented
