What the Event Game Team Liked Best

The Event Game team at this intersection appreciated the great selection of produce, the Old Market environment and the lively atmosphere. They also liked the uncontrived, natural setting, the throngs of people and helpful vendors.

What Could Be Improved

The group felt that the area lacks sufficient seating and thought that the congestion caused by the large number of people could be relieved.

Short Term

The team suggested several actions that could be undertaken to quickly improve this area of the market. They include:

• More "distance" signage - "Farmers Market 3 blocks"
  
• $1 parking for Saturday mornings
  
• Benches thoughout the area
  
• Close 11th Street to traffic from Howard to Jackson
  
• Keep area clean
  
• Advertise "local produce" aspect

Long Term

For the long term the team recommended:

• Remove railroad car in front of Spaghetti Works
  
• Create a more permanent structure with temporary awnings, banners, and ongoing advertising
  
• Expand the space to accommodate more vendors and activities
