The Armature Works building was originally built in 1910 as a streetcar maintenance facility. With NMTC financing, the facility was renovated, and now includes local market and food vendors downstairs, and a small business incubator and co-working space upstairs. The overall building includes 76,500 sq feet and has created or retained an estimate 900 jobs. The area is a USDA Food Desert, and in addition to offering local, fresh foods, it encourages small businesses and has stimulated economic development in the surrounding area.
