Located at 331 Water Street, in the heart of Riverwalk Landing, sits the Freight Shed—Yorktown's premiere waterfront venue. Built in 1935 by the National Park Service after a tropical storm destroyed much of the waterfront, the original building was used as a terminal for Baltimore steamships until 1952. Then, it was remodeled and served as a post office. Today, this historic building can be rented for weddings, meetings, and special events!
Nestled along the banks of the York River, the Freight Shed boasts stunning waterfront views, and makes for a beautiful backdrop to capture your special day.
The location of this venue puts it right in the heart of Riverwalk Landing. You'll find waterfront restaurants, shops, and museums all within walking distance (or just a short Trolley ride away!).
The Freight Shed isn't just for weddings! Many local businesses and organizations rent it for training, team building exercises, and corporate retreats. It also makes a beautiful venue for baby showers, anniversary celebrations, and even class reunions. Discounts are available for York County residents and non-profits.
When you book the Freight Shed for your next big event, you'll receive complimentary access to: tables and chairs; audio-visual system, overhead lighting, catering kitchen, and a seasonal tented outdoor plaza.
