Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Edison Area

"Going to the Brooklyn Museum is one of the most cool things to do in Brooklyn. It’s home to a delightfully eclectic collection and many fine traveling exhibitions. If there was ever a museum that spoke so well to what it means to be a human from different angles and cultures, it’s this one."

"Taking place outside the Brooklyn Museum, the Brooklyn Pop-up market features a variety of homemade one-of-a-kind items. Now you can enjoy a fun trip to the museum paired with a craft fair. Location: 200 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11238"

"In a shining example of redevelopment and preservation, the Chelsea Market has transformed a former factory into a shopping concourse that caters to foodies. More than two dozen food vendors ply their temptations, including Mokbar (ramen with Korean accents); Takumi (mixing Japanese and Mexican ingredients); Very Fresh Noodles (hand-pulled northern Chinese noodles); Bar Suzette (crepes); Num Pang (Cambodian sandwiches); Ninth St Espresso (perfect lattes); Doughnuttery (piping-hot mini-doughnuts); and Fat Witch Bakery (brownies and other decadent sugar hits)."

"Keep walking north and you’ll hit the Chelsea Market on 9th Avenue and 15th street. Give a big fat middle finger to the Anthropologie store there, where I slowly lost my sanity working for 18 months (kidding/not kidding). Continue inside to some of the gourmet shops within the Chelsea Market."

"For some of the best street photography opportunities and some of the best food in New York City make your way to Chelsea Market. Crammed with delicious eateries and unique stores the market will keep you occupied for hours."

"Nothing represents Brooklyn's do-it-yourself spirit and obsessive love of all things vintage like this market, where vendors from around the borough and beyond sell crafts, antiques, and artisanal specialty foods. April through November, the Flea is an outdoor affair, crowded with hungover hipsters and sunburned toddlers enjoying pupusas (Salvadoran stuffed tortillas) and locavore popsicles. On Saturdays, it takes place on a lot in Fort Greene (176 Lafayette Ave), while on Sundays it camps out on the Williamsburg waterfront (27 North 6th St)."

"Maybe that's why the Brooklyn Flea has two locations, one in Williamsburg on Saturday, and another in Dumbo on Sunday, to fit all of your fashionable sides. Both locations feature creative artists, clothes, handmade decor pieces, and wildly unique jewelry. Williamsburg: 10 am - 6 pm, Saturdays / 90 Kent Ave."

"*NOTE: If one of your days in New York happens to be a Saturday, shuffle around this itinerary to make this day your Brooklyn day so you can check out Smorgasburg and the Brooklyn Flea. Also, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden has free admission before noon on Saturday!"

"There were ramen burgers, lobster rolls, chicken and waffles, bubble waffles and ice cream, so much more.” See all Williamsburg Smorgasburg - Saturday reviews"

"While buying fresh fruit and vegetables might not be high up on your agenda of things to do when vacationing in Downtown Brooklyn, the Green Market is still worth a visit. Held every Tuesday and Saturday throughout the year, and on Thursdays too from April to December, outside of the Brooklyn Borough Hall in Columbus Park, this market is a hive of local activity. As well as produce stalls, there are cookery demonstrations and lots of food trucks with bistro-style terraces."

"Your best strategy at this huge, jam-packed Saturday market is to do a walk-through first. Check out all the stands to see who has the juiciest pears and apples that day (you can usually sample the fruit), and which fall root vegetables are calling your name (snowy parsnips! bulbous rutabaga! pink turnips!). Before you’re done, pick up heritage pork from Flying Pigs Farm and fragrant herbs from Lavender by the Bay."

"If you happen to be in the city on a Saturday, pop into the Grand Army Plaza Farmer’s Market, on the Northwest corner of Prospect Park, for a great selection of fresh local produce and a cheeky afternoon snack, like the cider donuts!"

"Walk the length of the Fulton Mall, and you’ll discover not just multiple retail outlets, eateries, and bars but the real Downtown Brooklyn vibe. You won’t be alone either; the mall has at least a hundred thousand visitors every day. Shop at big name stores like Macy’s, Banana Republic or Gap then drop into some of the smaller stores and pick up anything from a hip-hop style dental grillz to the latest mobile phone."

"A post shared by Dorrit (@thedorritshow) on Dec 13, 2019 at 5:28am PST. Dine and shop at Fulton Mall for amazing deals and quality time. At the mall, you will find several retailers selling various items such as toys, kids’ clothes, jewelry, shoes, and much more."

"Get amazing deals as you shop for items at Georgetown Shopping Center. The mall is strategically positioned thus giving you an easy time while going shopping. Furthermore, a secured parking lot is available for you on the premises."

"King’s Plaza Shopping Center is an amazing place where you should go for all kinds of items. You will have lots of deals and discounts for genuine products. You will also receive great services from the professional staff who will advise on the best items according to your needs."

"It's not unusual to see Italian tourists giggling and taking photos of themselves in front of the Bar Pisellino sign on this spot's awning. That's because the name, pisellino, means "little penis" in Italian. But there's nothing naughty about this bar, owned by chefs Rita Sodi and Jodi Williams (of Via Carota, Buvette, and I Sodi)."

"For something different, try Ethiopian at Ghenet in Park Slope. For a modern take on ramen, try Chuko in Prospect Heights. For upscale farm to table fare with an Italian twist, try Frannie’s on Flatbush Avenue (sadly, reader Bettina just informed me that Frannie’s is now closed – read this lovely eulogy to my beloved pizza place!) I used to recommend Pok Pok for Thai, but that too has apparently closed. I haven’t personally ate here, but Ugly Baby gets rave reviews despite the silly name."

"A few favorites are Westville for some unpretentious veggie-friendly fare, Tartine for decadent French food (which you’ll likely have to wait in line for – the quintessential New York experience), or Jack’s Wife Freda for delicious Middle Eastern food. Those on a budget can grab a delicious falafel at Taïm – I love their sweet potato falafel."

"From humble beginnings, in a rented stable, the St. Jean Baptiste Roman Catholic Church, also known as the Église St-Jean-Baptiste, underwent a lot of expansion and rebuilding to become one of the most famous churches in the city. It is the only church in New York that has a dome. The beautiful design carved out of limestone is an extraordinary work of art."

"Located at the Lexington Avenue of Upper East side, very close to Central Park and Metropolitan Museum of Art, is this parish Church, which is said to be one of the most beautiful churches of NYC. The interior of the church is really very artistic. One can always plan for a quick visit to this Church, when they are at the Upper East Side of Manhattan."

"Another example of Roman Catholicism’s presence in NYC, this church on the Upper East Side was built with French-speaking Catholics in mind. Construction began in 1841 after a large congregation of French-speaking inhabitants were looking for a place to worship. Daily service is still given."

"Known today as the Christ Church, United Methodist, it began with an organization of the same name, which came into being to allow the representation of the increasing number of Christians. The cornerstone for the church was laid in 1882. It was constructed in the Romanesque style of architecture."
