A Look Back at Washington, D.C.’s Outdoor Food Market in 1900

Here’s a great photo to share on a lazy Saturday.

Shoppers at the outdoor food market, 7th Street at Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. View looking up 7th Street, ca. 1900

  1. Isnt that looking down Indiana Ave from around 6th Street where the courthouse is now? The perspective on the gold dome and the distance seems incorrect for Penn and 7th.

  2. It’s looking north on 7th more from Indiana. Starbucks would be in the building on the foreground corner. So 7th to the foreground, Indiana to the right.
