Brooklyn Flea to Stay at Williamsburg Savings Bank

The Brooklyn Flea is tweaking their plans for the spring/summer season. While they won’t be doing a flea in Dumbo this season, they’re going to stay at the Wiliamsburg Bank Building and that’s a win win for everyone because it is such a great space to be in. From  Brownstoner:

If you could hang out at a landmark like One Hanson every weekend, wouldn’t you? So would we—that’s why the Flea is staying there (Sundays only) for the rest of the year! When we said “12 Weekends Only!” back in January, we had no idea the 80-year-old landmark bank would be such a perfect fit for the Flea. Now, thousands of awed visitors and hundreds of happy vendors later, it’s obvious. (Even the New York Times is psyched.)

And starting April 10, we’ll finally be back outdoors in Fort Greene every Saturday at our Bishop Loughlin H.S. homebase/flagship, can’t wait. From April 11 on, we’ll be at One Hanson every Sunday.

We love our new friends at Skylight One Hanson—you too can do events at the bank, just contact them!—and thank them for making our extended stay possible.

And we’re truly saddened that the Flea won’t be in Dumbo in 2010. We tried our best to make a market there happen, but it just didn’t work out. We hope to be back by the water again soon.

In case you got confused, here’s the cheat sheet:
The Flea will be at One Hanson Saturday and Sunday this weekend and next (April 3+4).

Starting April 10, we go back outside in Fort Greene every Saturday (yay!). Starting April 11, we’ll be at One Hanson every Sunday. Both markets will be open 10am to 5pm.
