Who's 'they'?

Camden

Camden is a 'where', not a 'they'. Were you thinking of some specific
group of people in Camden?

The Stables market has been demolished

No it hasn't.

Yes it has, all the arches have gone and are now a building site.

The Horse Hospital building doesn't have any stalls in any more, north
of the railway line all they have is a few stalls on the ramp bit
backing onto the road

It's a lot more than a few. There are also places underneath the Horse
Hospital.

And the stuff that has been demolished was 'temporary' stalls, not
original fabric. That's still there, and will once again be housing stalls
when the redevelopment is finished. Now, i could be completely wrong and
wildly optimistic about what the nature of those stalls will be, but i
think it's still going to be Camden, just more of it. We'll have to wait
and see, won't we?
