Fifth Avenue Place Food Hall & Retail
by AE7 Design
Pittsburgh, PA, USA
AE7 took a holistic approach to rebranding of this 27,000 SF three-story food hall that included food and beverage (F&B) as well as retail shops. Once a vibrant shopping and food court venue, the space was outdated and in need of an overhaul. AE7’s solution not only addressed the fundamental aspects of the architectural renovation, but explored the untapped potential to transform and create a signature food hall concept. Applying our experience in the F&B industry, we looked to create a fresh atmosphere that celebrates food as entertainment, creates gathering spaces and a sense of place to meet for work and social events. Additionally, we engaged the leasing aspect of the project to implement a strategy to establish the necessary variety and quantity of food offerings to make it a viable destination Food Hall.
The new vision impacts the visual connection to the city to externalize the F&B experience and creates an internal spatial experience that is vibrant and light. The design takes into consideration health and wellness, implementing WELL Building principles of design that introduce natural daylight and living green walls, as well as healthy food offerings. The transformation is dynamic in creating a place where people love to visit, relax, and work.
