One lane is closed off outside the former PCYC building at 98 Byng Street, soon to be "Dirty Janes".
A new water connection to the building is being installed by Orange City Council for a fire sprinkler system.
One lane on Byng Street will remain closed until Tuesday afternoon, with work due to wrap up Wednesday.
The new business will comprise a cafe and indoor market featuring almost one hundred permanent stalls for "antique ... or homemade" products.
Interior walls have been demolished, ground-floor windows have been enlarged, and the exterior will be fitted with a one metre-high tile facade.
Operating hours are 10am to 5pm, seven days a week. Peak periods are expected to attract about 200 people per day.
The stretch of Byng Street will be resurfaced by council workers.
