When I gave up at the DVF sample sale opening day, I headed downtown along Sixth Ave, and checked out the hot new Limelight Marketplace. Inside the 163-year-old church-turned-nightclub, the shiny new market (mall?) is a candybox assortment of mostly high-end pop-up stores, with one of the prettiest and probably priciest “food halls” to boot. I picked up a new pair of Havaiana flip-flops at $18 but if it’s Petrossian caviar, Mariebelle chocolates or a bikini wax from J Sisters you’re after, the Limelight Marketplace has it. The marketplace is at 656 Sixth Avenue at 20th Street. It’s open Monday to Saturday 10am to 9pm, and Sundays 11am to 8pm.
HEHEHE! My Irish friend loved that place b/c it was once a church. Now it has the black and white floor just like me. I guess we are all moving on. Unfortuntely, I can’t afford Petrossian cavior…They need to think of something else if they want to see my pretty face there again.
