OPEN FOR BUSINESS
Reimagined,
al-fresco DeKalb
Market opens
BY MEAGHAN MCGOLDRICK
Downtown Brooklyn’s
world famous DeKalb Market
Hall began taking advantage
of the city’s al-fresco dining
plan with the launch of the reimagined
DeKalb “Open-Air”
Market on July 7.
The outdoor food vendor,
which features global eats
and drinks from local vendors,
will set up shop at Albee
Square West and Gold Street
each weekday as part of the
city’s Phase Two of reopening,
which allows for outdoor
dining across the city.
“The Open Streets program
is the perfect platform
for launching the fi rst DeKalb
Open-Air Market,” Anna Castellani,
founder and CEO of
the sprawling DeKalb Market
Hall, said in a statement.
“Our approach has always
emphasized the ethnic diversity

of New York’s food scene,
and outdoor markets are a
huge part of that culture.”
“Plus,” she said, “it’s a terrifi
c opportunity for our local
businesses to come back
and for the Brooklyn community
to get out, drink and dine
safely.”
The self-proclaimed “culinary
camp” will feature
“Global Fare on Gold Street,”
including DeKalb Market staples
like Katz’s Deli, Koti Donor,
Pierogi Boys and more
— all of which can be washed
down with a brew at a new
Craft & Carry Beer Garden.
The DeKalb Open-Air
Market will be open Monday
through Friday from 11 am
to 8 pm. DeKalb Market Hall will go al-fresco every weekend. File photo by Jason Speakman
