Don't waste your time at Whole Foods. Support Essex Market! 
City of New York 12/26/12
Essex Street Market began in 1940 as part of an effort by Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia to find a new place for street merchants to do business. 
Urban Oyster 3/30/11
This was one of 9 indoor markets built in the late 1930's when Mayor Laguardia banned pushcarts. Only 3 remain - this one, the Moore St Market in Williamsburg, Brooklyn & La Marqueta in East Harlem. 
Serious Eats 5/12/13
Historic indoor marketplace with great meat, cheese, fish, sweets, and some of our favorite food stalls in town.
