The Waterfront Market was a source of fresh produce, including conch, fish, fruit, vegetables and cargo from the Out Islands.
In 1916, Market House was the principal trading place for fruit and vegetables, meat, fish and sponges. But over time, the government moved most of the market functions out of the city. Fish, fruit and vegetable vendors ended up mostly at Potter’s Cay, and what remained on Bay Street was the tourist-oriented straw and craft market.
