Description

The District of Kitimat has identified the need for an outdoor market in the downtown core to increase local commercial activity, help home-based businesses transition into commercial spaces, and create a vibrant downtown. This project builds on earlier research into commercial revitalization and business support initiatives which birthed a pilot food truck hub in Kitimat. The goal of this project is to identify an optimal location and format for an outdoor market in downtown Kitimat through:

A feasibility study that reviews such factors as access, servicing, climate, regulation, and other relevant considerations; and
A market analysis that creates a business case for this investment in the community.

Once options have been prepared and a preferred site has been selected, preliminary designs will be created to help with visualization. Findings and design developed at this stage of the project will inform future detailed design and construction of the market.
