The official SJ flea market Instagram posted (below) that they are not closing. However, they have yet to address pictures from the San Jose planning commission who have a meeting the 24th of this month set to plan a proposal to build mixed used residential buildings on the site.
@jromero_650 on Instagram says:
"As a vendor myself, I just got off the phone with the SJ Flea Market front office.
They confirmed they will be conducting business until the end of the year, into next year. As for the city council meeting on March 24, that is accurate. We need everyone who supports the flea market/vendors to participate on this Zoom call on 3/24!"
