The historic Arthur Avenue Retail Market in the Bronx' Little Italy, opened up in October 1940 and was built as a Work Projects Administration (WPA) project. "Come to Italy without leaving the city." Go inside and find all sorts of Italian food purveyors.

"This Bronx market has been a fixture along Belmont’s main thoroughfare in the beloved Little Italy district. Deeply rooted in Italian traditions, this market is enveloped in a range of aromas from freshly cut capicola to the tobacco from hand-rolled cigars. Butchers, cheese mongers, and a new beer hall are on the market’s busy perimeter, while the aisles hold an abundance of fresh produce — and cured meats hang alongside Italian and American flags...Arthur Avenue and East 187th Street."
