I suspect it could be a lot worse! - there’s going to be a museum there - keeping a lot of original structures and architecture - creating more public and pedestrian focused spaces is great Plus as I understand it this was largely driven by the fact that it no longer makes sense to have a market like this in such a central location, far from major road, rail, and sea freight connections. The new location for the market will combine several other major markets (including Billingsgate, which will have moved twice for this sort of reason) [0]. I’ll be sad to see it go, I walk past the market at least weekly, but I think it’s probably a positive change overall.
