The Concord Mall is Delaware’s oldest mall, and it has seen many restaurants, attractions, and shops come and depart throughout the years. Concord opened a Burger King in the mall in the late 1980s, and that Burger King’s reign as a premier mall diner ended in 2009. However, the Burger King was not demolished; it was simply walled over. A photo of the hidden BK behind the wall went viral in the summer of 2022, and people were surprised at how its retro style, in all its 1980s-fast-food grandeur, was still fully preserved.

Many of us used to build secret forts and hideaways in our backyards or houses when we were youngsters. These cherished childhood memories led Spaniard Fernando Abellanas to build a tiny studio apartment beneath a bridge in Valencia, Spain. Abellanas, a self-taught designer, built his “fort” using some clever engineering. It features shelving, a chair, a desk, and a sleeping area. He can even fold the walls up and down to create a more open or closed environment. One of the most unusual things you’d expect to discover under a bridge is a mobile studio apartment.
