C Street Pop-Up pillars include:
A sustainable ethos | infrastructure built from recycled plastic bottles and other sustainable materials; brands encouraged to source and operate with a goal of carbon neutrality
A commitment to DEI | pop-up brands to be selected with a focus on diversity, equity + inclusivity
A local experience | operators will be locally/independently-owned businesses
Lawn games, public art and programming will further enhance the onsite experience—creating a place for friends to get together and neighbors to meet, shop and socialize outside—while enjoying all the benefits of Iron Works.
