About
Vintage dealers, vinyl, jewelry and handmade goods fill the stone Archway under the Manhattan Bridge at Brooklyn Flea's DUMBO market.
The Archway setting is the best-looking flea market backdrop in the city — cobblestones, vaulted brick and the bridge rumbling overhead. It suits vintage hunters, gift shoppers and anyone building a DUMBO photo-walk day around Washington Street and the waterfront. If you want a souvenir with a story instead of a gift-shop one, the dealers here deliver.
What to expect
Dozens of vendor stalls packed under and around the Archway with vintage denim, mid-century objects, records, art prints and estate jewelry. Prices run the full range, and friendly haggling is part of the culture. The surrounding blocks add coffee, pizza and the Brooklyn Bridge Park waterfront within a five-minute walk.
Good to know
- F to York St or A/C to High St; the Archway is at 80 Pearl Street
- Mornings are calmest for browsing; afternoons get tight in the Archway
- Vendors take cards, but cash still helps when negotiating
- The market runs rain or shine thanks to the covered Archway
- Combine with Brooklyn Bridge Park and the Washington Street photo spot nearby
