From 1813-1873, the current location of the North Market housed a cemetery known as the North Graveyard. After negotiations with city developers, grave removal and relocation began in 1872. In 1876, a market house as well as other small businesses and restaurants were built on the land. Very cool marketplace "The variety of retailers is amazing. Food from around the globe can be sampled here. There is also an incredible spice shop, a balsamic vinegar vendor, meat market, and Bakery. It is one of my favorite destinations in Columbus."
