It was opened after Charles Cotesworth Pinckney ceded the land to the city in 1788 – with the stipulation that the property remain a market. The first market building opened in 1804, and other buildings were added up until the 1830s. Open every day except Christmas Day, the market contains a variety of vendors, artists, craftspeople, and more.

The area was first settled in 1680 and features some remarkable historic sites, as well as a variety of restaurants, boutiques, and art galleries. In addition to the Pink House, the French Quarter contains the Old Slave Mart, built in 1859; the French Huguenot Church, built in 1844; and the gorgeous Dock Street Theatre, built in 1809 as a hotel. The site contained the original Dock Street Theatre, which opened in 1736 as one of the first sites used by the original Thirteen Colonies as a theatre. The original theatre was lost to the Great Fire of 1740.
