This food hall and surrounding district northeast of downtown occupies the site of a historic wholesale market that supplied the city for generations. Reopened in the 2010s after redevelopment, it gathers dozens of independent vendors selling produce, prepared foods, and international cuisine under one roof. The area around it has grown into a lively arts and dining destination, with murals, breweries, and event spaces. Its blend of old market heritage and contemporary culinary culture has made it a magnet for visitors seeking local flavor.
