San Antonio's City Market has drawn shoppers and vendors to the same stretch of downtown ground for well over a century, and the market's long history of selling produce, meat and goods from wagons and stalls made it a fixture of Texas town life. Markets like this one were the working heart of many Southern and Southwestern cities before supermarkets took over, bringing farmers from the surrounding countryside into direct contact with townspeople. Its covered sheds and open stalls show how commerce, weather and daily routine shaped urban trade, and the scene offers a glimpse of the neighborhood as it once worked.
