The Market's
Transformation

Rooted in Tradition, Cultivating Tomorrow

West Side Market, under the leadership of the non-profit Cleveland Public Market Corporation, is in the midst of a $70 million transformation project. This project aims to preserve the Market’s rich family-owned fresh food business tradition and iconic architecture while adding to the Market experience to reach new audiences and communities that reflect Cleveland in the 21st Century. Your investment in West Side Market’s transformation will restore this historic landmark, bring its operations into the 21st Century, and lead to greater community impact than ever previously imagined.
