Washington's first Chinatown emerged on the northern edge of the Murder Bay section of the historic site. D.C.'s Chinatown was established in 1884, although Chinese and other Asian immigrants began moving into the area in noticeable numbers as early as 1880. This Chinatown existed along the south side of Pennsylvania Avenue between 4th and 7th Streets, with the heaviest concentration of residences and businesses near the Center Market site where 4th Street, C Street, and Pennsylvania Avenue met. This Chinatown existed as a vibrant community until 1935, when the construction of the National Archives Building and the Apex Building (which houses the Federal Trade Commission) forced the Chinatown to move to its current location on H Street NW.
