== Redevelopment == For several years, the [[Dallas City Council]] Economic Development Committee has been in talks with developers. In early December 2013, plans were announced for mixed-use residential and retail redevelopment of the area. Announced plans include tearing down Sheds 3 & 4, replacing them with retail space and roughly 300 residential units, and converting Shed 2 entirely to retail and a food pavilion. Shed 1, the only property still owned by the city, will house the remaining actual farmer's market, with an expected doubling of the number of stalls available to local farmers.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.dallasnews.com/news/dallas-city-hall/2013/12/02/a-very-specific-look-at-the-upgraded-dallas-farmers-market-and-how-it-will-be-funded|title=Dallas Farmers Market developer assures council it won't just be an apartment, entertainment development|author=Robert Wilonsky|work=[[The Dallas Morning News]]|date=December 2013|access-date=January 9, 2019}}</ref>
