Those chiseled letters are all that remain.
Foodland Supermarket, whose awning intrudes on the site, may also occupy the former public market's indoor space, but this day the security shutters were down, and there was no one to ask. Do you know more?

By email, a friend comments that she lived on Cortelyou Rd. from 1960-1975 and that there was no public market in this location. A few of her old friends remember a store in this location but nothing like, say, Essex Market. That lettering, though, seems to date from decades earlier.
