The small outdoor space on Grand Street in Williamsburg just off Bedford Avenue, that we thought would see no action this summer, appears to be getting set to open as Mercado Libre. It’s gone through several incarnations the last couple of summers, starting with Bauplatz in 2006 (our personal favorite in a Prenzlauerberg kind of way). We know this because of the tables being set up inside and the fact that it says Mercado Libre on the outside wall.
UPDATE: On Sunday, Mercado Libre was open and was set up as a small outdoor shop.
