Text description provided by the architects. The Iron Market in Port-au-Prince has been an iconic symbol of Haitian community aspiration for over 120 years. Prefabricated in France by the celebrated engineers Baudet Donon & Cie, the iron structure was initially destined to serve as a railway station in Cairo (possibly explaining the building’s Islamic minarets), but for unknown reasons ended up in Haiti where it was inaugurated in 1891. Having suffered extensive fire damage in 2008 which destroyed the Market’s north hall, the central section and part of its southern range suffered severe damage in the devastating 2010 earthquake. The restored structure was inaugurated on January 11 2011, within one year of the earthquake.
