In the summer of 2008, they began the search for indoor space for a winter market and eventually found a prime corner location at 76 Front Street. In addition to diggin&#8217; the Dumbo setting, the two sought out a space geographically more accessible for market goers coming from areas like Manhattan, Hoboken, and Jersey City.<\/p>\n<p>Expect \u201cquality affordable antiques that won\u2019t be subject to outdoor elements,\u201d said Demby. The space is much smaller than Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School, but that won&#8217;t decrease the diverse array of items (think of the treasured relics you might find in your grandparent&#8217;s attic) that the 25 vendors, new and returning, will be selling: 1968 Parisian posters, old frames, aged phonograph record players, vintage jewelry, mid-century American chairs, Scandinavian mod furniture, and men\u2019s clothes from the 50\u2019s through 70\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>For a current list of vendors, visit their webpage at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.brownstoner.com\/brooklynflea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brownstoner<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to get there:<\/strong> <em>Take the F or any downtown train that connects to it to York Street, in Brooklyn.
