Rick’s Still Slinging Steaks


Have you been wondering what’s the latest on Rick’s Steaks versus the Reading Terminal? Well you’re in luck because the Inquirer gives an update today.

Two months after a dispute between market management and Rick Olivieri ended with his lease not renewed and his eviction ordered, Olivieri is very much in business, and an uneasy stalemate has settled over the historical market, which has operated from 12th and Market Streets since 1892.

Olivieri’s lawsuit against Reading Terminal Market Corp. and the nonprofit’s countersuit against Olivieri are slowly ripening in Common Pleas Court, with no resolution imminent.
