  1. You mean the Central Area Market that is in the Central District but named the Madrona Market because ( by the managers own admission several years ago) “no one would want to come if we named it the Central District Market”.
    So we pretend that it is not the central district, gotcha!

  2. This blows. We lost 14th & Union to Capitol Hill, no way do we lose MLK & Union to Madrona. What can be done?

    • Pray tell, when you “lost” it, exactly what were you ‘doing’ with it?
      I really hope you’re just being silly.

      Union and MLK is considered Madrona. Madrona is part of the Central District. Honestly, do people have nothing else to worry about?

      • I wouldn’t call making a post to a news site “worrying.” I was just making a comment. Take it easy!

  3. This is close to my house and sounds great – but I wish it was open at a time that I could ever actually go to it.

  4. I was just happy to have it back – I don’t care what the heck you call it. I don’t live in what’s considered “Madrona”, I live in the valley – and I was really upset thinking the market wouldn’t be back this year because I hadn’t seen any signs touting it’s return…I don’t give a rats behind what we call it, I just want it to be here every spring/summer/fall…bought my veggies and cheese and flowers and eggs today, and will be back every Friday!
