The community space includes a commissary kitchen that hosts a food-based incubator program for emerging food-based businesses, a shared office space to co-locate services to make it easier for residents and businesses to access resources and an outdoor public plaza with infrastructure to support a Vancouver Farmers Market satellite.
Vancouver Housing Authority owns and operates the apartments located on the upper floors. The city of Vancouver developed the ground floor commercial space and is partnering with Fourth Plain Forward to operate it.
Speakers scheduled to be at the event include U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp-Perez, Sen. Annette Cleveland, Vancouver Mayor Anne McEnerny-Ogle, mural artist Christian Tellez and more.
