From 2007: Security discovers secret apartment at shopping mall in Rhode Island

NBC 10's Mario Hilario reported in 2007 about the discovery of an apartment that a group of artists had secretly built inside the Providence Place mall in Rhode Island.
They occupied it for four years, until mall security discovered it.
The adventure will be told in the documentary "Secret Mall Apartment" that will premiere at South by Southwest in March 2024.

Ironic that abandoned malls are now being considered for repurposing as affordable housing. This guy might be able to rent his old spot back

[@robxwallace]

Honestly all 3 of these guys are to blame for being caught. They should have become the mall security and it could have lasted forever.

that's some serious 3DChess right there

[@alfsleftnut9224]

I know right? Imgaine if they'd actually gotten a security job.

Steve Wallis, the Canadian stealth camping guru, would be proud of him.

Lmaooo that’s amazing

[@alfsleftnut9224]

This is really awsome and someting I kinda wish I could do. But what gets me is how did they not get caught when they were putting in the block wall?

[@wejustaspeckofdust]

Here was a '70's french comedy where they were doing the same, what was the title?

[@susann3772]

Where do you live? At the mall
