Great news for every Eastern Market enthusiast!

Tommy has worked hard with the Mayor to make the transition in the fire's aftermath a process that protected the merchants both inside and outside the fire ravaged building. But as of tomorrow morning, the temporary structure housing the displaced merchants will be open for business. This week, merchants starting moving in for a soft opening, but tomorrow will bring the first full day of customers. You'll see a big difference in the lay-out of 7th Street with the farmer's line and merchants, and the flow of foot traffic to and from the temporary structure will probably take some getting used to. But overall, the temporary structure will bring welcome relief to the displaced merchants and give them a home for the next year or two while the Historic Eastern Market is repaired and rebuilt.
