LAUNCHING JUNE 6:
Legacy Square: The Arts & Culture Hub
Rising from a former gravel lot at S. 3rd Street and Logan Ave S., Legacy Square is the city’s newest "living room"
- Gathering & Play: Featuring a futsal court, in partnership with the RAVE Foundation, a children's play structure, and a 15-ft large-format screen, this space is designed for high-energy community events.
- The Stage: A performance shell and 15-ft large-format screen, the stage is perfect for arts and cultural performances, movie screenings, sporting events, and more. The mass timber structure is designed to optimize view lines to the screen and supports natural acoustic projection. The stage will also play host to musical guests and performers for a uniquely Renton experience.
- World Cup Ready: Launching just in time for the 2026 World Cup, this space is set to be the regional "Watch Party" headquarters, drawing thousands to Renton’s downtown core for events throughout the summer.
- Local Arts: Showcasing public art by Renton-based artists, the Square showcases local character and identity.
Piazza Park: The Green Connector
The $2.8 million overhaul of Piazza Park creates the essential "outdoor lobby" for the Renton Market and a seamless pedestrian experience.
- Integrated Design: New seating, shaded areas, and paved paths use Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles to keep the space safe and welcoming.
- Indoor-Outdoor Flow: The new south-facing canopy on the Renton Market space ties directly into the Piazza, creating a unified space for festivals, farmers markets, and casual daily use.
The Renton Market: Expanding Opportunity for Small Business
The ongoing transformation of the former Pavilion Event Center into a year-round indoor market will be a game-changer for local entrepreneurs. We will hand over the keys to our tenant having completed our building improvements, allowing for the next phase to begin. The tenants planned improvements over the coming months will ready the space for future vendors and activities.
- Small Business Support: Envisioned as a space bustling with small business kiosks and space for anchor tenants/restaurants, the Renton Market will provide a low-barrier entry point for artisans and small business start-ups after internal build-out is complete.
- Community Utility: The inclusion of a classroom kitchen will ensure the space isn't just for commerce, but also accommodates shared learning and culinary programming.
- Vibrancy and Movement: Moving from a sporadic event schedule to regular all-week operations provides consistent foot traffic for downtown businesses.
