The cornerstone of Faneuil Hall Market was laid on 27 April 1826, and the complex was opened for business the following year. The entire project, involving the creation of six new streets, the extension of a portion of the Boston waterfront, and the expenditure of more than $1,100,000, was accomplished without any special taxes of any debt on the part of the city. The 128 stalls in the market and the stores in the flanking structures carried an extensive selection of food products and within a short time became the food distribution center not only for Boston but for most of New England. In addition, the large rooms on the second floor of the market building, known collectively as Quincy Hall, were frequently the site of commercial fairs and exhibitions such as the triennial fairs of the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanic Association. - US NRHP
