While flashy food halls may garner more attention, traditional markets remain the heart of many towns, attracting a significant portion of regular diners. From Chester to Crewe, Darlington to Doncaster, Shrewsbury to Warrington, and many more across the UK, traditional markets continue to thrive, offering a vibrant hub for communities. Despite the allure of branded competitors, traditional markets hold immense potential for revitalising towns. By investing in their modernisation and planning strategic initiatives, these markets are the perfect platform to become the true cultural centres of their communities. Other countries, particularly Spain, have long embraced the integration of dining and markets, creating grand market spaces that embody the essence of community life. Here are some stunning examples from around the world of new markets under development aiming to harness the transformative power of markets when properly reimagined and nurtured. #foodhalls #markets #regeneration

DID YOU KNOW? Since 2018, the average unit size for new US housing starts has decreased 10% to 2,420sf. Construction starts for new single-family homes declined in 2022. But starts for homes with fewer than 3 bedrooms increased 9.5% over the same period. Shrinking the size of homes and making them more efficiently scaled by eliminating bathtubs, dining rooms, separate living rooms, etc can bring costs down (and profits up). (WSJ)

The first iterations of sidewalk cafes were defined by function, but have since evolved and will continue to, thanks to artists, designers and placemakers. Concrete to Cafes: The Evolution of Public Space in NYC from Placemaking US

NYC is building permanent outdoor dining structures. One of the most cost effective ways cafes and restuarants can increase their covers is to occupy public space such as parking spaces. Many restaurants want this retailers and others don’t. Aucklands outdoor dining fee for the city centre is $2000 per year for 10sqm. 65% more than other areas (Heart of the City). This is for footpath space not road space. This isn’t the only reason Queen Street doesn’t have any outdoor dining but it is a factor. How different would it be if Auckland encouraged street dining in the city centre and elsewhere?
