Toronto's First Market

City of Toronto Archives

The histories of food and urban life have always been closely linked. Join the City of Toronto Archives for a walking tour of the St. Lawrence Market area – Toronto’s oldest marketplace and its first civic centre – to learn how the market has been regulated, renovated, and re-envisioned from 1805 to the present. Our walk will be outdoors, but participants may wish to take a self-guided market stop for treats or lunch afterwards!
