Tristan Hebron of Scranton walks through the Marketplace at Steamtown's food court area a few times a week and wonders when the revamped space will open. "I just can't wait to see it come to fruition," Hebron said. The old food court will be called Scranton Public Market and will be home to food and craft vendors.
"That would add a little bit of character to this mall that's desperately needing it," Hebron added. One of the public market's biggest spaces will house a longtime pizza business from Lackawanna County. Basilico's Pizzeria in Dickson City will open a second location at Steamtown with a second purpose. It will be both a pizza restaurant and an Italian market.
