Reading Terminal Market has added 15,000 square feet to the 1100 block of Filbert Street with the completion of a $1.5 million transformation project that began earlier this year. The space extends the market's footprint to allow for outdoor dining, pop-up shopping and cultural events in Center City.
The Filbert Street Transformation project finally broke ground on Tuesday after being delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The project will expand the outdoor area of Reading Terminal Market to include more seating and space for artists, artisans and food-sellers to host events.
Ma Lessie's Chicken and Waffles, a Southern cuisine restaurant, will open at the space once occupied by KeVen Parker's Soul Food Café at Reading Terminal Market this August. Owned and operated by a former manager of the late restaurateur's popular eatery, Ma Lessie's will offer both dine-in and takeout services at the booth located near the market's 12th Street entrance.
