About The Clinton Market Collective Project And Revitalization of 11 Clinton Ave
As part of its display at 11 Clinton Ave. Capitalize Albany Corporation unveiled final designs for its Clinton Market Collective project based on feedback from hundreds of Albany stakeholders with immersive and virtual on-site views in December during the Downtown Albany Business Improvement District’s Hot Chocolate Stroll event. The project is a focal point of the City of Albany’s Clinton Square Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI).

As part of New York State’s third-round $10 million DRI award, the design and construction of Clinton Market has been funded by the New York State Department of State, National Grid and Capitalize Albany Corporation. The project concept was developed by hundreds of stakeholders who participated in the Downtown Revitalization Initiative planning process and was designed by Schenectady-based landscape architecture firm PLACEAlliance.
This project will ultimately result in the redevelopment of 11 Clinton Ave. – a former roadbed – into the Clinton Market Collective — a new market concept and proving ground for startup businesses, diverse pop-up retail, installments by local artists, and signature events. Its design will create a welcoming vibrant space, enhance pedestrian connections, and anchor Clinton Square’s role as both an engaging destination and an introduction to the city’s unique local neighborhoods, arts and commercial venues.
