Does anyone know if the flea market on 6th Ave in Chelsea still operates on Sundays?

The location has changed since they built on those lots. I'm not sure where they are now. They're kind of scattered in that neighborhood.

Thanks Jane. That is disappointing though. I thought I remembered something about plans to build on those lots and there was talk of moving it up around the old El tracks on 10th ave. I don't know where any of that went though.

Unfortunately the web is full of sites that still show it on 6th Ave. Of course none of them are dated so you have no way of knowing how old the info is!

Well, don't give up (if you're coming into the city) because I see them on 6th ave, but on different blocks. I can't remember exactly where. Just walk around a bit!

I will. (I'm a flea market junkie) - but I'll have to hobble a bit. I'm not walking too well right now.

Yeah, well as I said, just walk around. The garage on 25th Betw. 6th and 7th has always been there, but I haven't visited in years, I hope they're still there. As far as the strip b etw. 24-27th, I saw new buildings, so they must be up and down the side streets. I'm sure you'll find plenty!
