Follow on Google News | A Vintage Treasure Hunt In New York - With nyma, the new york manhattan hotelFor those who prefer hunting for inexpensive treasures to trawling the high street for designer goods, New York can be a haggler’s delight, offering plenty of quirky thrift shops and flea markets selling second-hand bargains.
By: Sophie Clark Setting the standard for distinctive vendors and arguably one of the best shopping streets in New York, Hell’s Kitchen Flea Market is cool, unique and bursting with interesting finds. From old postcards, trinkets and household goods to costume jewellery, there’s nowhere better for visitors to discover something delightful for just a few dollars. In addition, Hell’s Kitchen and indeed many suburbs of New York such as Brooklyn, have a real ‘make do and mend’ attitude reminiscent of the 1940’s war era – austerity is ‘in’, with locally-produced slow food cafés on the rise, farmers markets selling handmade cheeses and baked goods and even craft and knitting nights in coffee shops, for those preferring a cuppa to a Cosmopolitan! Located within walking distance of the city’s top landmark sites and just a short cab ride from Hell’s Kitchen Flea Market, the recently re-launched nyma, the new york manhattan hotel is conveniently situated on 32nd Street between Broadway and Fifth Avenue.
