A shipping container park and beer garden called The Eddy is officially moving into downtown Reno near the Truckee River, after months of opposition for the project.

The Eddy will be located at 16 South Sierra Street, on the dirt lot next to the Riverside Artist Lofts. The Eddy owners say they are hoping to get their liquor license soon, with a target opening date of early August.
