While it may not be opening until the Spring of next year, the Limelight Marketplace invited us over today to take a look at the space as it transforms yet again. Photographer Katie Sokoler reports back that, "although it's just a bunch of mini stores, they don't want to be known as a mini mall! It's a market." The folks there also told her that it would be very family friendly (but no club kids), and "Saturdays it will feel like a carnival because they'll have clowns and mascots walking around." Terrifying!






It looks like they're moving the vendors at Union Square Park indoors.
I agree, I'll stop by if it's not too crowded.

Why do the interior shots remind me of a level out of a Tomb Raider game?
So, is most of Manhattan officially part of New Jersey yet? Or is it Florida?
It's just like. It's just like. A mini mall...

Moneychangers in the temple? This wont end well.
It's kinda disturbing to see those workers not wearing really thick gloves
Ah I stood right there in the 5th pic high as ever on E. Listening to moby's remix of In This World. Good times folks Good times.
