Local businesses collaborate on Mott playhouse

C.S Mott Children's Hospital has some new construction going on.

No, not a new wing filled with state-of-the-art medical equipment. It's actually a bit smaller and not so high-tech. But it is for the kids. It's the Mott Storybook Cottage. When it's all said and done, it'll be a 90-square-foot playhouse, built by local companies with local materials.

Excerpt:

Best of all, the Mott Storybook Cottage is a home-town project – all building materials and services are being donated by locally based businesses specializing in construction, architectural design and interior design.

Once complete, the one-of-a-kind playhouse will be auctioned at the “Champions for Children’s Hearts” celebrity golf event hosted by the NFL’s Brian Griese and Steve Hutchinson on May 17-18. All proceeds will benefit the children’s and women’s building project, and the U-MCongenitalHeartCenter.
