Quincy Market is a historic building near Faneuil Hall in Boston, MA. It was constructed 1824–1826 and named in honor of Mayor Josiah Quincy, who organized its construction without any tax or debt. To provide an expansion of shop space, Quincy Market was built, as an indoor pavilion of vendor stalls. The main Quincy Market building continues to be a source of food for Bostonians, though it has changed from grocery to food-stall, fast-food, and restaurants. It is a popular and busy lunchtime spot for downtown workers. In the center, surrounding the dome, is a two-story seating area.
