...Daardoor wordt een beeldbepalend gebouw, dat al jaren leeg stond, opnieuw zinvol gebruikt. Er is ruimte voor vijf winkels met een grote verkoopsoppervlakte: een meubelzaak, een fabriekswinkel, een winkel van huishoudtoestellen... Allemaal winkels die veel verkeer aantrekken en die zich anders als baanwinkel zouden vestigen langs invalswegen. In het centrum van Eeklo wordt eveneens gewerkt aan een alternatief voor baanwinkels. De vroegere Kruger-brouwerij vlakbij het station wordt voor het grootste deel afgebroken en omgevormd tot zone voor warenhuizen en grotere handelszaken. Ook hier wordt een leegstaand complex in de stad opnieuw gebruikt in plaats van nieuwe ruimte voor baanwinkels aan te snijden....

I was thinking about that too, but I'm afraid "mall" is typically AE. Thanks again, Jim

: 'Shopping centre close to a motor way' (sic) is a nice definition, but not a nice translation. 'Retail park' is perfectly good (UK/IE/ZA/AU) English IMO.

baanwinkel would be a shop located along a major road and a retailpark sounds like a 'site' you
in to - like a shopping centre with individual retail stores.
a 'down-home' explanation: the shops on the Boomsesteenweg would be baanwinkels, IMO.

is described as a shopping area-sounds like a shopping mall, in the US sense with loads of individual shops on a very large designated area, not on individual streets and not under one roof.

retail park (UK), strip mall (US)
As for 'baanwinkel', I'm with writeaway. As for 'retailpark', that's simply 'retail park' in UK English. If I remember correctly, it's called a 'strip mall' in the US.
-> "Moffett Retail Park shopping center brings you a breakthrough in convenience shopping. Although a cluster of retail stores, it is not a shopping center or mall as we know it, it is a retail park."

Carpet Right
JJB Sports
Magnet
Atlantic Homecare..."
http://www.liffeyvalley.ie/wh_rp.htm
-> "The company owns a western portion of the strip mall along U.S. 41 East and east of the county courthouse. The property includes the former Kmart space, soon to become a super-sized Beall's Department Store."
