DC lost an important icon this morning to fire, Eastern Market, a 130-year-old market for things ranging from food to arts and crafts. It has been in continous use as a market since it was built in the 1870s.
Marc Fisher exlains what we've lost.
Metroblogger has good info on what could lie ahead for the historic landmark.
Everyone's recounting there favorite stories of Eastern Market. Mine is that when the LTR and I first met, when we both worked on the Hill, we would go there on Fridays -- especially this time of year -- for fresh grilled chicken sandwiches. I can taste them still.
