A workshop is being held Tuesday evening at Greens on Tenth, where residents can weigh in on concepts for the property bounded by 11th, 12th, H and I streets. The block includes the current courthouse, the Hall of Records and the county's former jail.
"How many times are we gonna have an opportunity to redevelop a whole square block of downtown Modesto?" Councilmember Chris Ricci said. "It's kind of a generational opportunity."
"What we heard loud and clear from the community is, first of all, the open-air market," said Jessica Hill, Modesto's director of community and economic development. "Another component was housing in our downtown area, and then the community is also very passionate about the Hall of Records, so finding a way to reuse that building but still keep the integrity of that as well."
"It's a place where entrepreneurs can gather and sell their stuff - whether it's produce, jewelry, art, coffee, or beer," he said. "A lot of times people don't get that opportunity, and this gives them a chance to try."
City leaders said Tuesday's workshop is meant to show residents a draft vision and get feedback on what's missing.
