‘Market 5 is alive!’

Above, a pair of scissors divides a ribbon as business owners take part of Charles City’s County grand opening of Market 5 that occurred on July 16. Located near the intersection of John Tyler Memorial Highway (Route 5) and Courthouse Road (Route 155), the new venue utilizes repurposed storage containers that will host community events and local businesses. Below is an example of one of the many dining areas located on the grounds.
