This was formerly the wholesale fruit and vegetable market. The Nottingham City Council website explains that “Work has begun on the redevelopment of Sneinton Market. As an important part of the city's heritage, the work at the market aims to improve the area and reinvigorate the site as a focal point for Nottingham's emerging creative sector. Units on the site are being refurbished into workshops and studios for use by creative enterprises.” Work on the Bath Street side of the market has yet to begin. The Nottingham Post reported that “Traders are hopeful that the £3.85 million redevelopment of Sneinton Market will transform it into the city’s own Covent Garden.”
