- In spite of the threat of redevelopment, it is business as usual on Moore Street in Dublin with Christmas shoppers seeking last minute bargains.
Moore Street in Dublin is as much as an event as a market,
It’s loud and untidy and vulgar, it’s colourful and it’s full of life. It’s a place where the traders peddle their wares with all the showman ship of the ringmaster.
Christmas Eve found the street full of bargain hunters getting the last of the Christmas provisions and one butcher out on street drumming up business draws quite an audience.
You can’t go wrong when you come to Moore Street, the biggest supermarket in Europe.
Europa Inns Limited has made proposals to Dublin Corporation to build a major shopping centre on the site of 20 houses in the area of Henry Place and Moore Street. Their plans include a pedestrian mall to go through the shopping centre and out onto Moore Street. This redevelopment could see the demise of the old market, with some people fearing it may be experiencing its very last Christmas.
How much of the old market will be incorporated into the new isn't clear but when it does finally go it will be missed.

Look at the side burns on those Garda. No EU Human Rights back then. Garda made sure society was functional. Everyone knew their place in society and stayed there or else there’d be pay back. Sidewalks, parks , neighborhoods kept tidy. Off shore nationals rapidly deported along with the highly educated and skilled. Come to think of it , offshore nationals wouldn’t ever be tempted to stay in the third world Ireland of the 1970’s!
Ah yes..we did not realize how lucky we were..among our own..safe an happy..lovely moore street..all gone..but never forgotten..god love them all..amen.

Ha ha! Moore street doesn't look like that anymore
To be honest it was a filthy place back then
It's so much better now, isn't it?
it had filth you could see not hidden in plastic packets in supermarkets with foods filled with chemicals . you could pick your own and know what you were getting and at good prices not the overpriced trash you get today it was a street market and streets got dirty ! !
But we loved it 😍☘️
