The latest initiative in the renewal of the ByWard Market was unveiled today when Mayor Jim Watson officially opened the Market’s first two year-round enclosed vending stands. He was joined by representatives of the ByWard Market BIA, and by Grant and Pam Hooker and Andrew Cullen, owners of BeaverTails Ottawa Inc.
The new Gateway Stands are located adjacent to the George Street Plaza and alongside the historic market building. They serve as a welcoming gateway to the many vendors and merchants along William Street and ByWard Market Street.
The Gateway Stands are occupied by Maple Country Sugar Bush and Maker House Company, providing premier and unique local products. The Gateway Stands also complement the renewed George Street Plaza, which opened in May, and represent a unique project to mark Canada’s 150th birthday.
The design, construction and installation of the Gateway Stands was sponsored by BeaverTails, Ottawa Inc., who were named today as the City’s newest Community Champion at the Leader level.
