Pike Place Market Seattle, In addition to preserving and protecting the historic buildings and character of the nine-acre historic district and serving as an incubator and supporter of farmers, artisans and small businesses, the Pike Place Market was chartered by the City of Seattle. Since 1907, Pike Place Market has been the soul of Seattle and the source of some of the best locally grown produce, fresh seafood, specialty food, handmade gifts and independently owned shops and boutiques. From our humble beginnings, when farmers sold fruits and vegetables from horse-drawn carriages on the cobblestones; to today, Pike Place Market welcomes more than 15 million visitors annually, Pike Place Market has a rich history and vibrant ever changing vendor market, loaded with year round events and activities.
