Nestled in historic East Harlem, La Marqueta is a delight to the senses. It's the up-and-coming local marketplace—a great taste of the neighborhood.
Project Updates
Overview
La Marqueta is a historic community marketplace in East Harlem owned by the City. The property is located underneath the MTA Metro North rail line on Park Avenue from East 111th Street to East 119th Street. The approximately 80,000 square foot site is made up of six parcels divided by intersecting streets and includes vacant land, a market building, a warehouse building, and an open plaza.
The City Council and NYCEDC completed the conversion of underutilized market space in the market building to create a 3,000 square foot kitchen incubator space and 1,600-square foot bakery space. The newly renovated spaces provides shared workspace and technical assistance for small, artisanal, and ethnic food businesses making the transition from working in home kitchens to using fully-equipped, professional facilities. The incubator program, HBK Incubates, will be operated by anchor tenant Hot Bread Kitchen (HBK), who will also run their social purpose business from the 1,600 square feet of state-of-the art bakery space.
