To be opened by the end of this year, Boxi Park will be equipped with a number of curated food and beverage options, as well as an outdoor stage, fenced dog park, beach volleyball courts and a recreational area for children.
Each container of Boxi Park will feature different cuisines, two full-service bars, and a beer garden.
