As this happens to be the 125th year of Moore Market, we thought we will dedicate a column or two to it. But though it has long vanished physically, such is its impact on our city’s heritage that we found we had tonnes of material on it. It finally came to a stage where we had to apply the guillotine, restricting ourselves to three pages and some more. Beginning with the lead story (Lessons (Not) Learnt from Moore Market), there is plenty of other material on the market. Not all of it was complimentary to it and we guess heritage is a composite of the good, bad and ugly. We hope you will enjoy what we have compiled and share with us your memories of Moore Market. Our photos alongside are of the miniature of the market, that stands outside the suburban railway terminal, adjoining Central Station. Pictures courtesy: Ramanujar Moulana.
