 BROADWAY
MARKET

Located
in the heart of Fell’s Point, this
quaint indoor marketplace consists of two separate structures and is
the center median of the 600 and 700 blocks of Broadway Street. The
square was laid as a marketplace in 1776 and is the only market still
functioning on its original site.
Although
it is smaller and therefore offers less than Lexington
Market, the surrounding neighborhood is much more pleasant both
visually and socially. One important point though: being the largest
and generally the most accommodating structures in town, you might
think that the markets would have restrooms open to the public; well,
think again. However, there is a public facility located on Aliceanna Street on the western side
of the marketplace.
Getting
to Broadway Market from the Inner Harbor is an easy eastward drive
down Pratt Street, which takes you directly to Broadway Street (the
market is South). But a better ride would be to take a water taxi from
the Inner Harbor to Fell’s Point, as it drops you off right at the
southern end of Market Square.
