This market is in the heart of the central business district in London. It's owned by the City of London and is designed to accommodate the busy lives of office workers. Many of the people who work in this section put in 12 hour days and then have to make their way home. For those who live outside the city especially, other stores might be closed by the time they get there. This provides a solution - workers can stop off here right after work or on their lunch breaks and get anything they need. This is not bargain shopping by any means. The place is filled with expensive wine shops and other stores to cater to the needs of the upper class. It is beautiful inside though, which is why our professor took us through for a detour on our tour of Roman ruins in the city.
