The Market district

From the 1880s to mid 1900s, the Market District was dominated by booming businesses. The industries that could be found in this area included wholesale grocers, fruit companies, furnaces companies, and many others. This area was in close proximity to multiple markets such as Haymarket, Mercantile, Quincy, and Faneuil Hall. The Market District was also plagued with many close encounters with petty and serious crime in addition to accidents.
