I fondly remember the 'old' flea market that existed in the late 1970s at a huge vacant site top of Grafton street facing across to the entrance to St. Stephen's Green. It was a paradise for bargain hunters, bookworms, collectors and pickpockets. Then they built that ritzy big neo-victorian glasshouse complex called the Stephen's Green shopping centre. Frugal days are back to stay awhile, so I'll be popping along to the new flea market. Is the real action in Dublin switching to the Liberties?
I think the Stephens Green Shopping Centre Is A fine piece of Work.
The entrance across the road from S.G.S.C Was once known as ''Traitors Gate'' if i am not mistaken.
This does not seem to be a benefit or a fund raiser for any cause, just a market for new and second hand goods.
Will we be seeing listings for Blackrock Market here soon? What about the shops on Grafton Street- can they advertise here for free too?
No, the Grafton Street shops don't sell goods at flea market prices. People used go to the Dandelion Market in what's now S.G.S.C. to pick up cheap bargains and to chat to friends and stallholders. You'll never get the same informality in the posh shops. The fur coat brigade aren't the only ones who go to Blackrock market. Someone should bring out a shoppers' guide to all those charity shops around the capital city. As the recession deepens those of us on low incomes will need to spare every cent.
Will this be a monthly/fortnightly event?
which is in the article?
Does anyone know if there's a free car parking near Flea market or somewhere near within walking distance?
