Parking
Free parking, including ADA-accessible parking, is available near the 2nd Street Market building on the street and in a paved lot. Free, paved overflow parking is available in the nearby lot for The Steam Plant, 617 E. Third St. Because the outdoor farmers market has relocated to the north side of the building, only accessible parking is allowed in that area.

RTA Bus Route 11
Take Route 11 north on Main Street through downtown to First and Webster streets. Walk south (right) one block on Webster Street to the Market.

The Market is easily accessible by foot or bike from neighborhoods in and around downtown Dayton. The Market includes a Link bike share station and ample bike parking.

The 2nd Street Market building has three accessible ramps, with parking spaces by both ramps on Second Street.

Food growers/producers, bakers, dry goods vendors and food-service vendors are available each week. People come for the freshness, the quality and the relationship with the local growers. The Market is a favorite place for many Miami Valley residents to go year-round for locally grown meat and produce.

The 2nd Street Market operates in an historical block-long former 1911 B&O railroad building. It was renovated in 2001 by Five Rivers MetroParks to help support growing and buying locally produced goods.
