just for you.
ESTABLISHED
by Lt-Col. John By in 1826, the ByWard Market is one
of Canada's oldest and largest public markets. The legendary
builder of the Rideau Canal, Colonel By himself laid
out the street plan of the Market, designating George
Street and York Street to be extra wide to accommodate
the creation of a public market and gathering place.
WITHIN an area roughly four blocks square, you'll find
museums, cafés, specialty food shops, boutiques,
galleries, restaurants, pubs, hair & aesthetics
salons and more! Easily accessible on foot, by transit
or by car, the ByWard Market offers a unique experience
for all. |
