The Cannery

A long stretch of Emerald City’s waterfront is taken up by the Cannery Marketplace, which creates a kind of dividing line between The Riverfront and the start of Royal Hill. The sprawling series of interconnected buildings were once a factory complex for the canning of fish (mainly salmon and tuna). The owners went bankrupt in the late 1920's and the Cannery was eventually converted into a large marketplace, with a combination of stalls and hole-in-the-wall shops, ranging from food vendors to booksellers, antiques dealers, and peddlers of various handicrafts or tourist memorabilia. The Cannery—also known simply as “the Market” or “Marketplace”—is one of the most active shopping areas in Emerald City and a major tourist attraction.
