Real Crash- Looking at Capitalism and its Laws:
The NY Flea market
It was known as the Brooklyn Flea Market and the Gifted Holiday Market, but now it is in front of the old Tower Records Annex storefront, East 4th St. and Lafayette, Manhattan, NYC, NY. It starts today and continues through to Xmas. Tower Records of course is out of business, and that means that the flea market is INDOORS. Get ready for 50 vendors giving you what you want.
See Really Long Link to get a taste of it.
After a successful 2008 debut, Brooklyn Flea is moving its "Gifted" holiday market into Manhattan, taking over the 6500 square-foot former Tower Records Annex storefront at E. 4th St. and Lafayette St. in Noho, where it will launch an expanded five-day-a-week pop-up shop from Thanksgiving to Christmas.
Gifted will feature a rotating cast of 50 vendors from Friday, November 27, to Thursday, December 24. Complete dates are as follows: Fri-Sun, Nov. 27-29; Wed-Sun, Dec. 2-6; 9-13; every day, Dec. 16-24. (Hours will vary from day to day, in the range of noon to 7pm.)
Note: From December 5 6 through March, the "regular" Flea will be moving indoors to 81 Front St. in DUMBO for its annual winter pop-up market, with about 50 vendors, every Saturday and Sunday, 11am to 6pm. The outdoor markets' last weekend is Nov. 21 22; they will re-open in April 2010.
The whole thing reminds me of the flea market world of the economy and real estate. Selling cheap, because the end is near, unless we go into bankruptcy reorganization, and get the dea with Russia, China, India. And trade Obama for someone who is vaguely at least human.
