This covered market has been around since the Lower East Side was a neighborhood teeming primarily with recent immigrants. But now that artists and young urban professionals have started to gentrify the neighborhood, the Essex Street Market occuppies a smaller space. However, independent vendors still peddle a wide variety of ethnic foods, ranging from Kosher meat and fish to Asian staples like tea and rice, as well as Latin American products.
