Farmers Market has become a central meeting place for Angelenos - "Meet me at 3rd and Fairfax" is still one of the most common phrases in the city. It is a must-see tourist attraction in Southern California.

Farmers Market has been the home to circus acts, parades, petting zoos, and stargazing. It was also the source of a daily newspaper column which, at its height, rivaled "Dick Tracy" in popularity. Chef Baloni, the irrepressible Fred Beck, made his home here and offered cooking tips and Farmers Market recipes.

As a part of an expansion and reconstruction project in 1941, Farmers Market became the home of the Clock Tower, which has become an international landmark.  After 68 years, and undoubtedly 68 more, Farmers Market remains an idea whose time is now.
