Boxpark Shoreditch

Location: London

Billed as the world's first pop-up shopping mall, Boxpark Shoreditch opened in 2011, occupying a strip of prime land in London's Shoreditch, which is temporarily available while it awaits development. Made of (how many shipping containers), each of which is rented out to retailers on a month-by-month basis, the Boxpark has since become one of London's coolest destinations, with a mix of fashion and lifestyle brands, galleries, cafés and restaurants.
