Editing Lord Street Market (section)

==History==

For the Heberts, going to the market was one of the trips that would count as an outing.<ref>My parents were introverts, by and large, and their idea of an outing had been more along the lines of a trip down the Boardwalk, a visit to the Market or going to an art gallery or museum.  Maybe once in a while we’d go to something more thrilling like a fair or baseball game, but no… this was the first time I could remember being out on the water. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/06/30/plague-12-2/ Excerpt] from [[Plague 12.2]]</ref>

The Undersiders pass through it while deciding what to do after the [[Battle at the Bank|bank robbery]].<ref>The market was open all week, but most people just rented the stalls on the weekends.  It was fairly cheap, since you could get a stall for fifty to a hundred dollars on a weekday and two hundred and fifty to three hundred on weekends, depending on how busy things were.  The stalls showcased everything from knick-knacks handicrafts put together by crazy cat ladies to overstock from the most expensive shops on the Boardwalk, marked down to ten or twenty five percent of the usual price.  There were ice cream vendors and people selling puppies, there was tourism kitsch and there was a mess of [[merchandise]] relating to the local capes.  There were racks of clothing, books, computer stuff and food.  If you lived in the north end of Brockton Bay, you didn’t have a garage sale.  You got a stall at the market.  If you just wanted to go shopping, it was as good as any mall. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2011/09/24/shell-4-1/ Excerpt] from [[Shell 4.1]]</ref>

It is where [[Lisa]] and [[Brian]] claimed that Taylor received her head injury from [[Bakuda|Bakuda's]] pain bomb when explaining her injuries to [[Danny]].<ref>“Explosions across the city all night and all morning, yes.  The incident at the PHQ.   All started by one of the parahumans.  I can’t remember her name.  Sounded Japanese?”<br/><br/>“Bakuda, right?  Yeah, pretty sure that’s it.  We were cutting through the Docks on our way back from the Lord Street Market, and I guess we were in the wrong place at the wrong time.  One second, everything’s normal, then disaster.  Brian was carrying Taylor’s bags while she retied her shoes, so she was a bit behind the rest of us when it happened.  Brian and I stood up after the explosion, and Alec, Rachel and Taylor didn’t.  Taylor was the scariest to see lying there, because you could see the blood right away.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2011/10/29/shell-4-11/ Excerpt] from [[Shell 4.11]]</ref>

The market was closed for a time following the [[Battle against Leviathan]], even after it was cleared of debris.<ref name="16.13e1"/>
