Church Street Marketplace, Pedestrian marketplace in Burlington, United States.
Church Street Marketplace is a pedestrian zone spanning four blocks with around 100 shops, restaurants, and local businesses at the heart of Burlington. The space brings together different types of buildings and creates a unified shopping and gathering area in the city center.
The marketplace was created in 1981 as a downtown revitalization project and later designated as a listed historic district. This transformation became a turning point for how the city center developed over the following decades.
Street performances, festivals, and concerts happen regularly throughout the year, drawing locals and visitors into the heart of the marketplace. These gatherings shape how people use and experience the space across different seasons.
The Downtown Garage offers two hours of free parking daily, with expanded options on Sundays and during holidays. The best way to explore is on foot, since the four blocks are close together and sit on level ground that is easy to walk.
Among the buildings are structures from different periods, including the Masonic Temple from 1897 and the Richardson Building from 1895. This mix of older and newer buildings tells the story of different phases in how the city developed over time.
