Grand Rapids, Michigan
A unique franchise opportunity is taking shape in one of Michigan’s fastest-growing downtowns. Fulton & Market Towers, a planned mixed-use development at Fulton Street and Market Avenue SW, offers the ideal setting for a Street Corner Urban Market in the heart of downtown Grand Rapids.
Located along the Grand River and just minutes from Van Andel Arena, this future development is positioned to become a vibrant destination for residents, professionals, students, and visitors. As Grand Rapids continues to invest in downtown housing and mixed-use development, Fulton & Market Towers represents the kind of high-density, walkable environment where the Street Corner Urban Market concept thrives.
Downtown Living Meets Everyday Convenience
Today’s urban residents expect more than traditional convenience stores. They want fresh meals, quality coffee, grocery essentials, grab-and-go options, and everyday necessities—all within walking distance of home or work.
Street Corner Urban Market was created for exactly this type of neighborhood.
Our modern market combines chef-inspired prepared foods, fresh grocery selections, premium beverages, local products, and innovative retail technology to create an experience that serves customers throughout the day—from morning coffee and breakfast to lunch, dinner, and late-night essentials.
Built Into Grand Rapids’ Growing Urban Core
Fulton & Market Towers sits within one of downtown Grand Rapids’ most walkable districts, where residents can easily access restaurants, offices, entertainment venues, parks, and the Grand River waterfront.
Just a short walk away, Van Andel Arena hosts major concerts, sporting events, and entertainment year-round, while nearby offices, hotels, and residential developments generate consistent daily foot traffic. The location also benefits from easy access to the city’s expanding riverfront and downtown business district, creating demand that extends well beyond the traditional workday.
As more people choose to live downtown, neighborhood-focused retail becomes increasingly valuable—and Street Corner Urban Market is designed to meet that need.
A Community Gathering Place
Street Corner is more than a convenience store. Each Urban Market is designed to become part of the neighborhood by offering fresh food, quality products, and a welcoming atmosphere that encourages repeat visits.
Whether it’s someone grabbing breakfast before work, picking up a fresh lunch, stopping in after an event at Van Andel Arena, or walking over for ingredients to make dinner at home, Street Corner becomes part of customers’ daily routines.
The Urban Market format creates a shopping experience that feels local while delivering the efficiency and innovation today’s consumers expect.
