Bridges Street Market, Market hall in Central and Western District, Hong Kong.

Bridges Street Market is a building with Bauhaus design elements in the Central and Western District featuring two floors of retail spaces. The structure includes 26 ground floor stalls and 33 first floor units for commerce.

The building was constructed in 1953 on the site of the American Congregational Mission Preaching House, a former religious center. This transformation marked the shift from a spiritual gathering place to a commercial hub.

The building's name comes from Bridges Street, and its site is tied to Dr Sun Yat-sen, who was baptised at the American Congregational Mission Preaching House in 1883 and lived on its third floor from 1884 to 1886. The surrounding streets once housed printing companies and early newspapers, earning the area the nickname Printing Street. Since 2018 the former market has served as the Hong Kong News-Expo, Asia's first news-themed museum.

The museum is at 2 Bridges Street, at the corner of Shing Wong Street in Sheung Wan. It opens Tuesday to Sunday and admission is free, though some interactive facilities charge a fee. A lift added during the renovation provides step-free access toward Wing Lee Street.

The building's recessed main entrance on Bridges Street is framed by Shanghai plaster panels scored to imitate brickwork, with a large window grid above that lights the interior staircase. The market's concrete frame uses beamless floor slabs on columns, so interior partitions could be added or removed freely.
