As the ByWard Market looks to revitalize itself as a year-round go-to destination for residents and visitors alike, officials are looking into purchasing and installing a synthetic outdoor skating rink there.
Zachary Dayler, executive director of the ByWard Market District Authority (BMDA) that oversees development in the area, says his organization is looking into purchasing a 90-by-20-foot synthetic pad, which, before adding in such expenses as lighting, insurance, security and fencing, etc., would cost between $40,000 and $50,000.
