Downtown Charlottesville has been in need of a full-size grocery for years. Rumor had it that the narrow streets of the historic area could not have handled large-scale delivery trucks, nor could it have held the additional personal vehicles that such an establishment would have attracted. Well, the downtown area now has its much sought after store. Market Street Market, cleverly named after its geographic location, delivers goods just like it should. With an interesting mix of average American brands, imported favorites, and locally grown produce, the Market Street market is sure to attract and satisfy a full range of Charlottesville clientele. For those who are lucky enough to live nearby, that daily walk to the neighborhood grocery has now been made possible.
