The Flea at One Hanson!

Holy crap. The Flea is taking over the insanely gorgeous former bank at One Hanson for the rest of the winter, starting Jan. 9+10. The clocktower Art Deco building at Flatbush Ave., across from the Target mall, will be our fancy new home every Saturday and Sunday through March, for 12 weekends only. (The bank is now home to Skylight One Hanson for event rentals.)
10am-5pm, 100 vendors, all your favorite foodies, 3 floors (stunning mezzanine, over-the-top bank, awesome vault), past, present, future. We're humbled.
More details soon, but we can't wait to see you at the Flea!
Note: There is no Brooklyn Flea Jan. 2+3, and we will no longer be located at the DUMBO/81 Front St. indoor location. One Hanson will be the only Flea location starting Jan. 9+10, through March 27/28.
