A Backyard Observatory
June 13, 2018 | building of the month
John Babos customized TR-800 Shed
John Babos wanted a place to look at the stars. A blanket laid out on the lawn could have been a solution, but John had something a bit grander in mind-- a backyard observatory. John knew he needed a building that could be designed to fit his needs, and no company could do that better than Tuff Shed.
His new 12x16 TR-800 was fully customized to become the ideal observatory. Instead of the traditional ranch-style roof, John requested a single slope roof, to accommodate a future observatory dome on top. “It works really well,” says John. “I’m trying to convince my wife that it’s for storage and an observatory, and not a second home for me.”
