Paloquemao Fruit Market

This guide to Paloquemao Fruit Market in Bogotá starts with a name that means burned stick, and a story that doesn't quite add up: most vendors trace it to a fire during the 1948 riots, though the market itself says it opened two years earlier. It follows the market hall's stalled 1960s construction, designed by architects Dicken Castro and Jacques Mosseri after Colombia's railway company drew up plans. Listen for how the vendors moved in before the building was ever finished.
