The Downtown Exchange
Food Hall, Bar & Coworking — Zanesville, OH
A rebuilt website for The Downtown Exchange, a food hall, bar and coworking building inside a restored 1876 landmark on Main Street in Zanesville. The building holds nine vendors, three meeting rooms, coworking and a monthly artisan market, and the old site kept most vendor menus as scanned images and PDFs. The new build is one hub site for the building plus a separately branded site for each vendor and the coworking space, with menus turned into readable text, all generated from shared content files so hours and contact details stay in step everywhere.
