Here is how to turn an old shopping centre into a modern, green one
Change language:
Shopmark that used to be called Europark is a shopping centre in Kispest, Budapest that is temporarily closed due to reconstruction. The aim is to create a smaller ecological footprint by switching to green energy, as forbes.hu reports.
Shopmark lies in HatƔr Street, Kispest, Budapest and it will be closed from the 23rd of April due to reconstruction. Therefore, most of the renters move out in the first week. However, some of the renters got special permission for being open during the reconstruction. They are in Shopmark Point that is the only open part of the mall.
The new plans
The new plaza is going to open in the third quarter of 2018 with a new look, new brands, and new stores.
The companyĀ responsible for the reconstruction is calledĀ KĆSZ ĆpĆtÅ Zrt. (KĆSZ Building Ltd). They started with the facade in February even before the shopping centre closed and continue their work until it gets its brand-new look.
The entire buildingās electric system will be updated, and renewable energy sources will be involved. Not only the mall itself but also its surroundings will have a different look.
