More than two years after a fire destroyed it, Capitol Hill’s popular Eastern Market is open now!.
Eastern Market, at 7th and C streets SE, underwent a $22 million head-to-toe renovation, one many of its supporters have called long overdue. Although the cause of the fire has never been officially determined, believed to have been the result of faulty electrical wiring.

The historical renovation came with some modern updates such as heating and air conditioning throughout the building and additional restrooms.
