Food Truck Rally — Loading Yard
Four trucks on the walls and 144 seats between the canopy posts.
The Ironworks · Loading Yard · 96′ × 64′, open air
Why it is laid out this way
- Trucks park on the perimeter with their hatches facing in, so no truck's queue forms into another truck's queue.
- The transformer pad in the north-east corner is left clear — it is in the room's DNA, so it is in every plan of this yard.
- Seating sits between the two canopy posts, which is the only part of the yard where a 10′ canopy has something to stand on.
