About this space
A place to settle in and get things done.
Containerville Corbridge Crescent is the original Containerville site in Bethnal Green, built from upcycled shipping containers and shaped around flexible workspace for small and growing businesses. Opened in 2015 with 30 workspaces, it now accommodates 78 container units, creating a distinctive setting for a varied collective that includes film producers, brand designers, printers and doggy daycares. The workspaces are designed as adaptable blank canvases rather than conventional offices. Single and double container units are ready to move into and can be personalised to suit different businesses, from creative studios and showrooms to professional offices. Fibre broadband, heating, multiple plug points and a kitchenette sink are provided, helping tenants settle in and focus on their work. A defining feature is the outlook over Regent’s Canal, with breakout spaces that support informal lunches and al fresco working. The wider Containerville offer includes outdoor kickback areas, bike storage, showers, dog-friendly facilities, on-site staff and security, and 24/7 fob access, giving the setting a practical yet sociable feel. The site is intended for entrepreneurs, start-ups and established small businesses looking for a flexible base within a lively community. Tenants can connect with neighbouring businesses through regular events, workshops, talks and networking, while nearby rail and Underground links make it convenient for teams and visitors. If you value independence, customisable surroundings and the energy of working alongside other ambitious businesses, this unusual East London campus offers a characterful alternative to a standard office block.
