Episode Details

Jefferson City’s new river market is set to open later this year on the historic grounds of the old state penitentiary, transforming a once-stigmatized neighborhood into a vibrant, year-round destination. Featuring food trucks, air-conditioned restrooms, a scenic open-air pavilion, and a new Greenway Trail, the project is a collaborative effort between city, county, state, and federal partners. Located right by the Missouri River and train tracks, it offers a unique vibe and is already attracting more foot traffic. With plans for farmers markets, yoga, community events, and private rentals, this revitalization is not just about space—it’s about reshaping how the city sees and uses this area, paving the way for private investment and lasting community growth.
