The former wholesale fruit and vegetable market is being redeveloped as part of a "Creative Quarter". “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.” (Nottingham City Council website). The existing units on Avenues A to C will have new roofs and shop fronts. 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.”
