Food Port — OMA brings a Food Port to West Louisville

New York-based, Dutch architects, OMA have revealed designs for a mixed-use food hub in Louisville, Kentucky. The design is the latest in a trend toward localized food systems that has been growing in the last few years. Strict regulations from the FDA and state health divisions along with growing demand for small, hand-made, hand-grown food have brought producers and consumers together. OMA's plans bring consumers even closer, providing public open space, educational programming, and retail market as well.
