Boxpark to Open 2nd Shipping Container Pop-Up Mall in NDSM Shipyards in Amsterdam

Boxpark has plans in the works to open up a 2nd pop-up shipping container mall, this time in Amsterdam’s underutilized shipyards. Boxpark NDSM will be located inside the immense Lasloods building, which was used to do finish work and final welding on ships back in the day. The temporary shipping container mall is expected to open in the summer of 2013 with 120 spaces for retail, restaurants and bars.
