Why does the City of Toronto want to redevelop the St. Lawrence Market North building?
The St. Lawrence Market North building currently houses the weekly Farmers’ Market on Saturdays and the Antique Market on Sundays. Although the building is available for rental on weekdays, the lack of adequate on-site parking, adequate loading facilities, poor acoustics and the lack of standard building facilities such as up to date and appropriate power outlets, drain systems and washing facilities have limited the use of the building for other events.
