More Than A Market

The Columbia Market House was constructed in 1869 on the site of an earlier open air market. The design of the Columbia Market House is attributed to Isaac Hobbs and Samuel Sloan, with Michael Liphart as the builder. The large open interior space is uniquely spanned with arched Howe trusses. These cross-braced wood trusses, reinforced with iron tension rods, are uncommon in buildings, but were a popular design feature of railroad bridges in the 1860s. The Columbia Borough funded construction of the Market House, an anomaly at a time when many of the market buildings in the state were privately funded. The Borough continues their support, investing in reimagining the market for 21st century commerce. In close proximity to the Susquehanna River and Columbia Crossings, imagine your rehearsal dinner or reception just a block away at this historic site. The space will be sure to wow your guests.
