@jbteal Hello! We are a nonprofit that supports the social service agencies in Pike Place Market, we do not have jurisdiction over the street.

Thank you @MktFoundation for the incredible opportunity to learn about the history of the market and the multiple ways that it serves our most vulnerable communities.

Public markets like @pike_place increase community health by investing in food, housing, social services, child care, and, of course, the incredible vendors.

Today, we are celebrating the Friends of the Market and their monumental achievement 51 years ago.

On Nov 2, 1971, Seattle citizens voted to keep #PikePlaceMarket. The vote ended a 7-year battle, established the Market as a historic district & created the Pike Place Market PDA.

[Pike Place Market Foundation @MktFoundation]

The work continues as we all partner together to keep the Market STRONG, now and for generations to come!

On November 2, 1971, Seattle voted to save Pike Place Market from the wrecking ball. 51 years later, we celebrate and proudly reaffirm that the Market is indeed a place worth fighting for!❤️

Check out this short documentary from last year's celebration: hear from the advocates who marched the picket lines, collected tens of thousands of signatures, and mounted significant legal battles.
