Brooklyn Flea Market
By Linnea Covington and Roisin O’Connor-McGinn
Spring is here which means the return of open-air markets to New York City.
However, it didn’t feel like Spring on Sunday April 6th — when the city’s newest and largest flea market set up on the grounds of Bishop Loughlin High School, Fort Greene.Dressed in coats and winter apparel, stroller-pushing parents and new neighborhood couples braved the cold and descended on the school’s well–worn asphalt running track.
Some people were on the hunt for unique furniture to decorate their brownstone; others were there for the homemade chocolate and nougat. All were curious about the neighborhood’s newest commercial enterprise.
