Report on the Assessment of Requirements for and Feasibility of a St. John’s Community Market
The City of St. John’s, as part of RoadMap 2021 – A Strategic Economic Plan for St. John’s, is assessing the potential to develop an enhanced community market. The City is undertaking this
assessment in collaboration with the St. John’s Farmers’ Market (SJFM), the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency and the Department of Innovation, Business and Rural Development. The community market would potentially utilize a portion the former Metrobus depot on Freshwater Road. The community market would build on the success of the SJFM by offering improved space and amenities for vendors and consumers and for community engagement activities.
The study included consultations with steering committee members, research on community markets, a survey of consumers, a survey of vendors at the SJFM, and interviews with community organizations with complementary mandates. It also included an architectural and engineering assessment of the space in the former Metrobus depot.
