Sawmill Market opening date announced

“There’s always people that are a little resistant to change, but the buzz around the neighborhood is a lot of excitement," said Rachel Matier, who lives in the neighborhood.

The Sawmill Market will replace the old lumber warehouse across from Hotel Albuquerque.

Officials with Sawmill Market said they're on track to open in Feb. 2020.

The market is expected to offer local restaurants, coffee shops, beer, wine, cocktails, along with retail space. There will also be about 2,000 free parking spaces for customers.
