Central Market, Queen's Road Central, Central District

The first Central Market was erected in June 1842. A more substantial building was built in 1858, superseding the first one. The second Central Market was demolished around 1890 and the third one was completed in 1895. The northern entrance of this Victorian style building faced the Praya (the present Des Voeux Road Central) while the southern entrance faced Queen's Road Central. It was demolished in the 1930s, and rebuilt into its present form as a four-storey building in 1939.
