Washington, D.C., 1921. "Center Market, 9th Street wing." Bananas, dancing and roller skating. National Photo Co. Collection glass negative. View full size.
In this location today. Center Market had room for 700 vendors inside in 1900. Was built in 1871 according to The National Museum of American History. Would love to see pictures inside of vendors and later skating rink and dance floor.
