Very nice offering, from same folks. BUT, the lack of crushed stone drainage around the dwelling and upright structures, worries me. That’ll pose mid & long-term structural problems, even with galvanized steel. Without drainage, during a flooding period, the structure floats right up and out of the water-logged ground, if not well-drained (18” crushed stone) and secured (deep-piling lag bolts & stainless cables). Just like a rubber ducky in a bathtub. Heh.
