Haymarket Square[1] is a commercial area on the Near West Side[2] of Chicago at Randolph Street and Des Plaines Street[3] just east of Halsted Street,[4] known primarily for the protest and bombing that occurred on May 4, 1886.[5][6] It was a wide,[7] busy commercial food produce market[8][9] for much of the 19th and early 20th centuries. The square is a tourist destination,[10] and is often a rally point for various unions[11] and political groups and individuals.[12]

The Haymarket Memorial sculpture was dedicated in 2004 on the site where the 1886 protest speaker's wagon was located.[13][14]
