A few vendors return to the Mary Help of Christians flea market

As you may recall, signs went up on Labor Day weekend announcing that the flea market in the Mary Help of Christians lot was ending its run ... and moving to the Immaculate Conception Church on East 14th Street and First Avenue in October.

However, as you may have noticed here on Avenue A at East 11th Street, a few vendors were around last weekend... and some more are back today...

    Most of the vendors selling today looked like they stored their stuff in the garage in the back corner of the lot, which will soon be torn down with the rest of it. I'm betting this is a loss of income for some of these folks, which is a shame as it's unlikely they'll be able to follow the flea market to the church on 14th and 1st, unless the church is going to allow them to store their bric-a-brack their too... I doubt it though...
