Although there’s been no official word from RIOC’s alleged Communications Department, the Daily has learned that Roosevelt Island’s popular Farmers Market returns to Good Shepherd Plaza, this weekend. That’s April 3rd.
Saturday morning, the Farmers Market abandons its winter home under the Roosevelt Island Bridge helix. They’ll set up instead in the friendlier confines alongside the historic church in the Main Street Canyon.
Fair weather with a high in the mid-50s expected… as are many of our readers.
All market revenue goes to PS/IS 217 Parent Teacher Association. Face masks and social distancing required for entry.
Unequal Bargains
On June 18, the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation’s Real Estate Development Advisory Committee gathered to discuss ground leases, the master retail lease, and the ten additional years being offered under the Island’s master lease. Howard L. Polivy, the committee’s chair, opened the meeting as a longtime host shows guests through a familiar house, pointing out the furniture as if it had never moved an inch.
