Pearl Street Market Coming to Downtown

Construction is officially underway for Pearl Street Market, a new downtown grocery store in Fort Wayne, set to open in early 2027. Developed by Surack Enterprises’ Chuck Surack — who already owns The Pearl next door — the project revives the historic Perfection Bakery building, filling a long-needed gap after the closure of GK Café & Provisions. Mayor Sharon Tucker announced the plan in February, and locals are thrilled to see major investment in the city’s core, signaling renewed confidence in Fort Wayne’s growth and vibrancy.
