Eastern Market Neighborhood Framework & Stormwater Management Network Plan

Utile led a large interdisciplinary team to develop a framework plan that will guide the development of the market’s expansion and the redevelopment of the market core to provide opportunities for local businesses to grow in place in the greater market area, improve the quality of life for residents, and preserve the authenticity of Eastern Market.

The greater market area is also designated as a Watershed Improvement District, and will serve as a model for the implementation of innovative stormwater management practices and green infrastructure for the city. Water management strategies will be incorporated into the design of industrial development typologies for the market expansion area.
