Flea Market
The best location for the flea market was in clinton Hill. If you like upscale flea markets- this is a NYC venue. you won't find too much esoterica here- but nice an afternoon to browse. They move this fleamarket to different locations every year or so. Not sure exactly where it is now. Generally closed for winter.
