QVM’s brand
new pavilion on Queen St. could house a micro brewery according to Deputy Lord
Mayor Aaron Wood.
The City is
looking for expressions of interest for the greenhouse area on the top of the pavilion
which is expected to begin construction in October.
“From
gardens filled with heirloom fruit, vegetables and indigenous plants to a
microbrewery, bakery and cooking displays, the sky’s the limit for what could
be achieved in this exciting new rooftop area.”- said the Deputy lord mayor.
“More than
10 million people visit Queen Victoria Market every year, so this is an
unprecedented opportunity for specialists in fresh food production, education,
hospitality, sustainability and technology to fit out and operate a coveted
space,” he said.
Expressions
of interest for the pavilion greenhouse opened this week and close at 11am on
October 9. Details: http://www.melbourne.vic.gov.au/building-and-development/urban-planning/local-area-planning/queen-victoria-market-precinct-renewal-plan/Pages/new-market-eoi.aspx
