site
mercado The Mercado, over 35 years old, was built and operated by a community-based non-profit group, the Guadalupe Organization, and funded largely through an EDA grant, with some Housing and Urban Development assistance and land provided by the local group. Over the years, it has served as a retail center with several original tenants still operating there. Festivals, weddings, birthday parties, and graduation events are held at the Mercado.
