Centre Market was built in from 1968 to 1871 as the largest market in the District of Columbia. Located between the White House and Capitol Building, the market became a community hub. Centre Market was razed in 1931 for construction of the National Archives. Vendors then created the Union Terminal Market at 4th Street and Florida Avenue NE, near the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Freight Terminal. Union Market Terminal is a 40 acre parcel of land near the intersection of Florida and New York Avenues, occupied by a group of wholesale warehouses built from 1929 through the late 1930’s as goods distribution centers for the city. The site was chosen for its proximity to Union Station rail lines. Many of the exiting buildings dating back to 1929- 1931 have been altered by filled-in loading docks and windows, additions above loading docks, etc., but retain much of their original and unique character. The historic district includes 70 contributing addresses, of which 68 were built between 1929 and 1931, one in 1932, and one in 1939. The four non- contributing buildings were built after 1939. The HPRB states that warehouses at 403-421 Morse Street were constructed in 1929 as part of the first phase of development. They line the block between 4th and 5th Streets, facing Morse Street. 501-527 Morse Street is a block of warehouse buildings located on Morse Street between 5th and 6th Streets, built in 1931. These two-story brick structures extends 14 loading bays in length and offer greater architectural features than the others on Morse Street. 1250-1292 5th Street is a long block of warehouses on the west side of 5th Street. Facing east from Morse Street to Neal Street is a continuous row of buildings constructed in three stages during 1929, 1930 and 1931. The two-story, brick warehouses with single-story loading docks are all very similar in design despite their different build dates. 1300-1334 5th Street and 1336-1338 5th Street warehouses line 5th Street from Neal Place to just south of Penn Street were built in 1929 in the same style as the other rows. The end building in this row,is 1336-1338 5th Street. It was built in 1939, ten years after the others to in the block to its south in a similar, but not identical, design. 1253-1269; 1271-1285 4th Street and 1287 4th Street NE is a block of buildings on the east side of 4th Street facing west between Morse Street and Neal Place. Three warehouse groups, 1253-1269 4th Street, were built in 1931 consistent in style with the standard model. The warehouses at 1271-1285 were built in 1957 and are not consistent with the standard model. Those at 1287 4th Street were constructed in 1930 in the established model style. 1253-1269; 1271-1285 4th Street and 1287 4th Street NE comprise a block of buildings on the east side of 4th Street facing west between Morse Street and Neal Place.
