The Times Union reported that TWFM’s winter market would move from the Troy Atrium to the vacant former Price Chopper at 865 Second Ave. in Lansingburgh, an estimated 50,000-square-foot single-level space chosen for social distancing. Not everyone downtown was happy: Artcentric Market owner Debra Lockrow said, “This is going to hurt downtown businesses, for sure,” and the Downtown Troy BID’s Katie Hammon said they would have loved for the market to stay but understood it had to be responsible.
“This is going to hurt downtown businesses, for sure.”
