The Morgan County/Decatur Farmers Market is taking shape

A $3 million permit was issued this past week for Building Construction Associates, Inc. for the new Morgan County/Decatur Farmers Market. The market has served North Alabama residents since 1937, and was ready for an upgrade.

A timber-framed open-air pavilion will replace the pre-engineered metal structure to create an impressive anchor to the downtown gateway and increase visibility from the adjacent overpass.

First Avenue modifications will promote on-street parking, pedestrian circulation and help define the market entrance.

The new design the will also feature large pedestrian plazas, a ‘front porch’ and a multi-purpose activity lawn for hosting community events and gatherings.
