The "Civic Core"
Components of a proposed "Civic Core" serving Judge Doyle Square.
Food hall: 10,000 square feet. Not a mall food court but instead "captures the culinary culture of a particular community," Hammes Co. president Robert Dunn said. The hall, which would abut a formal restaurant, combines elements of fast-casual dining, grab-and-go and fresh foods under one roof, Dunn said, bringing together exciting local restaurateurs.
Health and wellness center: 7,000 square feet. More than a simple fitness center, also offering a clinic, wellness, nutrition and sports medicine.
Conference center: 20,000 square feet.
