Container City 2 in Trinity Buoy Wharf, London. Stack N15 will also use containers to create the pop-up urban village.
SHARE:
Work has commenced following planning permission being approved and a loan of £300,000 from Haringey council. The site is due to open in Spring 2018.
The development will consist of 72 shipping containers, consisting of food and drink outlets, retail outlets, office and collaborative working spaces, and shared spaces to be used for community events and exhibitions.
“What inspired me? A burger.” Ali Mehmet, the CEO of the project, developed Stack N15 after the success of a previous project.
N8 Burgers in Crouch End opened in 2015, after Mehmet realised that there was a lack of good food options in the area. His aim was to bring a more lively food experience to the north, maintaining that good food options “shouldn’t just be for Soho.”
The site is currently a car park next to the railway arches of Seven Sisters railway station.
Mahmet maintains that the project is not just another container project, but will make the local area more eco-friendly, by taking cars off the road and encouraging the use of public transport.
Further, the containers will have green gardens on the roofs and solar panels, making them self-sufficient.
Mahmet also expects the project to bring in between 75 to 100 jobs to the local area.
