Columbia Market House has full slate of vendors with waiting list
Columbia's once-beleaguered Market House now has a full slate of vendors with a waiting list. The property also boasts several events and private bookings per month, Chris Vera, market manager, told Borough Council.
Council members hired Vera, who runs the historic preservation society, as full-time venue manager. He started in July with total annual compensation of $73,622. CHI St. Joseph Children's Health previously managed the 94,000-square-foot building part time. Council members and residents discussed at the time whether the market house needed or could afford someone to run it full time.
