Earth calling USM

If you'd like a taste of how out of touch with the market Urban Space Management is, just take a look at their wonderful website (at http://www.urbanspace.com/greenwich_market.html).

The first line says:
The Royal Charter covered market is situated in the heart of London’s “Millennium Village” and has over two and a half million visitors a year.
That's odd - I thought the Millennium Village was in the Greenwich peninsula, nowhere near Greenwich Market.

Do watch the slideshow while you're at the website and indulge in a bit of nostalgia at all those traders, artists, goods and "Greenwich Market" signs that just aren't there any more.

The website is also a great place to get clued up on how many markets USM don't manage any more.

It does make you wonder how much USM actually know about Greenwich doesn't it?

it appears usm have said a lot under aanonimity how about something with their authorised voice, maybe just as evidence that surely they pay attention to something other than their barmy systems, no pun intended.
