Text description provided by the architects. The Abrantes Municipal Market is located in the transition to the historical center, where the Rodoviária do Tejo's workshops once were, so badly in ruins that demolition was recommended. It is an urban lot between two streets, each at a different height: at the bottom (to the west) we have the Largo do Tribunal (Court Square); at the top to the east, the N. Sra da Conceição street. It is an extraordinarily narrow lot for the program at hand, and this feature has ultimately determined the design project.
