Lexington Market is a historic market in Downtown Baltimore, Maryland. The market is now housed in a 60,000-square-foot market shed building completed in 2022 that is home to 50 merchants and kiosks. The market has occupied many market buildings over its 200+ year history, most recently in its "East Market" building at Paca and Lexington Streets that was built following a major fire in 1949 that destroyed the shed building built in 1871. Following the completion of its new market building, the East Market building was decommissioned and slated for future development.

  • Lexington Market is a historic market in Downtown Baltimore, Maryland. The market is now housed in a 60,000-square-foot market shed building completed in 2022 that is home to 50 merchants and kiosks. The market has occupied many market buildings over its 200+ year history, most recently in its "East Market" building at Paca and Lexington Streets that was built following a major fire in 1949 that destroyed the shed building built in 1871. Following the completion of its new market building, the East Market building was decommissioned and slated for future development. Lexington Market is located near the Baltimore Light Rail and Baltimore Metro Subway stops of the same name. It is about six blocks from Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Lexington Market is one of the longest-running public markets in the nation, having been around since 1782. The market continues to stand in its original site. The land for this historical market was donated by General John Eager Howard, famous colonial Revolutionary War commander of Maryland Line regiment of Continental Army from his estate "Belvedere" (also known as "Howard's Woods) west and north of Baltimore Town. The market originally operated without sheds and stalls. Farmers would load up their horse drawn wagons with ham, butter, eggs and produce. Farmers would travel from Towson and Reisterstown to sell their goods at the market, while watermen would bring their catches from the Chesapeake Bay and converge on Lexington Market's property to sell their goods starting before dawn. In the beginning the market was open on Tuesdays, Friday and Saturday from 2am until 12pm. A bell would ring at the start of the day and at the end of the day. Before being called Lexington Market it was known as Western Precincts Market. The Market is owned by the City of Baltimore and managed by the nonprofit Baltimore Public Markets Corporation. A project to build a new market shed building began in 2020 and was completed in late 2022. (en)
