2 A DELICIOUS DESTINATION WHAT BEGAN AS A DREAM FOR A FEW COMMUNITY MEMBERS SOON BECAME A REALITY, THANKS TO THE LEADERSHIP OF GRAND ACTION, THE PLANNING AND CONSULTING OF TED SPITZER, AND THE DESIGN IMPLEMENTATION BY HUGH A. BOYD ARCHITECTS. The Market is a mixed-use facility that brings together production, distribution, marketing and education about local agriculture. The indoor facility features a 24-vendor market hall. We offer several exceptional spaces throughout the site, including rentable incubator kitchens, rooftop greenhouses, and the nation s first teaching kitchen for kids (you have to see it to believe it). The Market is LEED Gold-certified (also the first in the nation), featuring a green roof, live walls, geothermal wells, rain gardens, and plenty of other innovative sustainable features. The Market s location serves as a focal point within the city, while revitalizing a previously neglected area. The Market continues to spark redevelopment of nearby properties while reintroducing community neighbors to a once underutilized Grand Rapids locale. Downtown Market, Inc. operates the Market. Its board members include leaders from local business, government and nonprofit sectors.
