Construction Update: September 2024


Time again for a construction update regarding the Madison Public Market. Construction continues on pace to deliver the former Fleet Service Building to the Public Market Foundation on January 31, 2025. We are still planning to build out the vendor spaces and make other necessary finishes such that the Market opens on July 1. Photos from a recent tour are described below.

Photo #1: An exterior view from East Johnson Street. Windows and doors are being installed. Photo #2: Exterior view from the back of the building. The structure extending out from the back of the building is the roof for the loading dock. Photo #3: This shows the developing interior of the Market Hall – the heart of the Market. The grey pillars show the demarcations of individual vendor stalls. This view faces East Johnson Street. Photo #4: A view from the public mezzanine overlooking Market Hall. Again, progress on creating the individual stalls are shown. Visitors will be able to view both the Market Hall and the TruStage MarketReady Hall from this vantage point. Photo#5: Shown is the developing TruStage MarketReady Hall, a space for new food-related businesses to cook, package, process and ship their goods. The windows face East Washington Avenue. Photo #6: A view from the Mezzanine overlooking TruStage MarketReady Hall. This area will also be used for special events.

“I just love supporting our LOCAL business owners! Hearing that the Public Market was coming to Madison was so exciting. It’s so awesome knowing I’d have the opportunity to experience a variety of local vendors in one spot! Personally, I look forward to bringing my family, knowing the quality the Madison Public Market will bring… It just feels good.” - Suzanne N. Johnson, Vice President Branch Banking, Park Bank
