Description
The Mitchell's Market building is a simple, one-storey structure located on the main commercial street of one of Nanaimo's oldest neighbourhoods. The historic place is confined to the building footprint.
Valeur patrimoniale
Built in 1922, the Mitchell's Market building exemplifies the type of simple, functional commercial structure commonly built in Nanaimo during the interwar period. Both the large front windows, designed to showcase merchandise, and the rear loading bays emphasize the building's functionality. Later renovations significantly modified the building's original appearance but its essential form is still intact.
The Mitchell's Market building is part of a substantial grouping of heritage buildings in this area.
