“…When vendors began by number to strangle the circulation, they were relocated to sheltered places. With the subsequent construction of canopies, markets ceased to be open spaces and food gained protection from sun, rain, cold and heat, and soon adopted a non-sensory and aseptic condition, losing seasonality and, consequently, physical and cultural proximity to the territory that once fed the city [50,51]. Despite this current detachment from the street, market halls are to be considered, in the words of Susan Parham (2015) [44], "outdoor rooms", positively designed spaces, with a clear function and clear volumetric boundaries, with the right proportion between the floor area and height of the surrounding buildings that provide the conditions for them to be convivial and vital urban places.…”
