For Artists, farmers, food stalls and crafts, etc.
Power, light, and heat for the stall, similar to Ottawa market and many European towns. Of course those who wish to rent the space must present to the city their business plan.

Keeping new and ever-changing will pull people in to see what is new. Once a place becomes stagnant, it is hard to pull them back and drop the city parking when you present a receipt that you had supported one of these stalls.
