Austin s farmers markets have changed a lot since the days of City Market.
That s the name of a covered market that opened in 1935 at the corner of East Seventh Street and what was then called East Avenue, the precursor to Interstate 35.
For nearly 20 years, Austinites bought produce from local and regional farmers seven days a week at this Art Deco concrete building that stood where Austin s police headquarters is located today. It was the site of early fat stock shows and Depression-era food giveaways, according to American-Statesman history writer Michael Barnes, and although the market closed in 1952, it remains a landmark in the timeline of Austin s food history.
