Boxpark will offer easy park and dine options at al-Wasl street in Dubai
Dubai - Arab Today

Shop, dine, play and walk in the unique settings of containers lined up on a Dubai street in a new concept of a souq next door.
Boxpark, Dubai's latest shopping district, has transformed a 1.2km stretch of Al Wasl street into a cool urban locality.
Developed by Meraas Holding, Boxpark is a concept borrowed from several cosmopolitan cities, where 220 shipping containers are put together to form a unique architectural design with an eclectic mix of colours.
Set to open by the end of this month, the outdoor mall offers easy park and dine option with a line up of cafes and restaurants as well as great shopping experience with global brands in funky settings.
Organisers say that Boxpark will be a place to be for hangouts in the next few months, offering what people might look for in a much smaller and convenient scale than the malls can offer.
"I have been watching the development over the past year and I was wondering what is being done with all these containers. It is an interesting design and they seem to have done a good job. I am looking forward to checking out the shops as soon as they open,” said Khalid Omran, a resident of Al Wasl street, living right across the Boxpark.

Another resident, who lives in Satwa and passes through Al Wasl street daily said he is also looking forward to checking out the new stores and cafes once they open.
"I love shopping and I hope they will have good deals at Boxpark. I walk through the area every day and it will nice to stop over every once in while and hang out a bit,” said Dany Camus from Philippines.
However, not all are convinced the concept will work in Dubai weather.
"It's a good idea and a great urban design. But outdoor concepts are never a sell-out in Dubai because of the weather, but, nevertheless it is an interesting new development,” said Hadi Mohammad, who also lives in the vicinity.
