Brooklyn Flea hits Manhattan

Great news for those unwilling to trek across the bridge to do their Christmas shopping: Fort Greene and Dumbo-based mecca of antiques, crafts and vintage, Brooklyn Flea, is coming to the East Village for one month only. The "Gifted" holiday pop-up sets up shop from November 27th to December 24th in the old Tower Records spot on Lafayette and 4th St, and will feature 50 rotating vendors, not to mention happy-hour shopping parties with DJs and free beer from Brooklyn Brew.
