Stay with us at the Embassy Suites
Seattle Hotel - North / Lynnwood when you visit the Pike Place
Market.
The history of Pike Place Market is as rich and colorful
as Seattle itself. Its nine acres and 100 years of operation
encompass thousands of unique and interesting stories —
stories of immigration, internment, gentrification and urban
renewal — that explain why Pike Place Market is called
"The Soul of Seattle."
On August 17, 1907, Pike Place Market was born. On that first
day, a total of eight farmers brought their wagons to the
corner of First Avenue and Pike Street—and were quickly
overwhelmed by an estimated 10,000 eager shoppers. By 11:00
am, they were sold out. Thousands of shoppers went home empty-handed,
but the chaos held promise. By the end of 1907, the first
Market building opened, with every space filled.
A century later, Pike Place Market is internationally recognized
as America's premier farmers' market and is home to nearly
200 year-round commercial businesses; 190 craftspeople and
120 farmers who rent table space by the day; 240 street performers
and musicians; and 300 apartment units, most of which house
low-income elderly people. "The Market," as the
locals affectionately say, attracts 10 million visitors a
year, making it one of Washington's most frequently visited
destination
