SIZE
10,000 sqft - 25,000 sqft
This project involved the adaptive reuse of a classic auto row structure in the dense Capitol Hill neighborhood into a modern, urban market, with the ultimate goals being: historic preservation; incorporation of sustainable, repurposed materials; returning to the transparency of the original building so as to maximize natural light, and the engagement and interaction with the streetscape and pedestrian traffic. To accomplish this, the auto row style was embraced and reinforced by maintaining the building’s exterior design while combining exposed brick, wood, and steel for interior; materials recycled from the original and off-site structures were employed; small tenant units were designed so as to make efficient use of space; original transparency was recreated via exterior windows to bring in light, activating the streetscape from within and activating the streetscape from without. Pedestrians were engaged by designing the building’s interior corridor to move through the market as a natural continuation of the exterior sidewalk flow.
Tenants include a flower and produce stand providing local, organic flowers and edibles, a sustainable sandwich shop with furnishings fabricated by Graham Baba from reclaimed materials, a local pub, butcher shop, cheese shop, and a shellfish distributor, all selling items distilled, farmed, raised, and grown locally.
