Secretan Covered Market - exterior front

This rehabilitated and restored Baltard style structure now houses a vibrant market hall inside. The masonry walls were replaced by glazing to create a strong visual and emotional relationship from the marketplace to the street. The original surrounding pavement were also replaced by wide pavement, more conducive to strolling around easily with any pair of shoes.

In order to save square footage and have the main ground floor focused on food store and any other food related items, basement was excavated to house fitness rooms. There was also a need for a dedicated area for families and their children and for that, a mezzanine was added inside to accommodate that program.
