The Weekly Photo (Week 34) West Side Market

West Side Market

Celebrating 100 years of service, the West Side Market in Cleveland, Ohio is both a historic site and a delightful shopping experience. With just under 30,000 square feet (less than 2800 m²), this market is modest in size compared to today’s giant supermarkets, many of which are twice this size. It is different, however, in that some one hundred independent vendors offer a wide array of produce, meats, baked goods, and more.

I took a few shots with my Nokia Lumia 900 phone. There was another test in the back of my mind, but a colleague brought up combining photos, so I quickly loaded them into Photosynth. You can see the result by clicking the image here on the right.

With a little bit of looking around, you can see the location (just scroll down) and you can find other views of this amazing place.

If you cannot shop there in person, you can visit the West Side Market site (click on name or the logo). Be sure to also see some of the historic photos on that site.
