Description
Pike Place Market is a public market overlooking the Elliott Bay waterfront in Seattle, Washington, United States. The fruit and vegetables displayed for sale at Pikes Market are picture perfect. Pike Place Market was established in 1907 for farmers and fisherman to sell direct to consumers. In the 1930′s, over six hundred sellers worked in the market.
............................
Before the creation of the Pike Place Market in 1907, local Seattle area farmers sold their goods to the public in a three-square block area called The Lots, located at Sixth Avenue and King Street.

Seattle Travel tells us " No trip to Seattle is complete without a visit to the historic Pike Place Market. The farmers and craftspeople of Pike Place are truly the heart of what is one of the oldest public markets in the country. "
