The current building was built in 1912 and has since undergone multiple renovations, the latest in 2004. Another great example of the “Classic American Food Hall,” the West Side Market is Cleveland’s oldest public market and home to 100 vendors offering meats, seafood, fruits, vegetables, baked goods, dairy, flowers, ready-to-eat foods, spices and nuts. It also boasts more than one million visitors a year. A large percentage of the booths are traditional farmer's market vendors (including a fair amount of artisanal producers) as well as a large contingent of classic street food vendors offering ethnic specialties that mirror Cleveland’s historically diverse neighborhoods. The 45,000 sf marketplace also features some limited retail offerings.
