The Mercato & The Piazza (Behind Building 50)
Join us for a fun filled, after work, "start the weekend off right" get together! There's a lot to do in The Village, so let's get started. Grab a bottle of wine from Left Foot Charley, TASTES of Black Star, or The Silvertree Deli, and head out to our new, regulation bocce courts on the piazza...bring your favorite acoustic instrument, and jam outside, or in The Mercato...play bean bag bocce or indoor horseshoes in the corridor while eating gelato...or whatever!
