Lexington Market celebrates grand re-opening

After more than 200 years in operation, Baltimore's Lexington Market has a new place to call home and a diverse mix of food and vendors. A grand opening ceremony Tuesday morning showcased the new 60,000-square-foot market building and public plaza that hosts 26 vendors and seven kiosks that include Faidley's Seafood and Connie's Chicken & Waffles and new Baltimore favorites, Tio G's Empanadas and Taharka Brothers Ice Cream. Lexington Market was founded in 1782 and is described as the longest operating public market in the country. Local leaders joined the business community to make it official: The new Lexington Market is up and running with hopes of having close to 60 vendors by mid-summer.
