Good News
Lets hope the Slow Food Footscray Market is a huge success. Weekly news reports on Footscray are a bit downbeat some of the time and we applaud Slow Food for doing something positive to the local community. I love markets and if they are local even better.
I'm thinking being a day time market every thing will turn out good and as a frequent shopper at Footscray Market it's great to have an additional reason to visit Footscray in the weekends. Bring on the love.
Trivia: The Maribyrnong River waterfront once looked drastically different: old photographs show wharves, cranes, jetties, factories and tall industrial chimneys lining the Footscray riverbank.
