Fair in the Square at Westchester Square


It was a lovely Saturday afternoon as four blocks of traffic were closed for the Fair in the Square at Westchester Square. From Westchester Avenue, up Lane Avenue curving around into East Tremont Avenue to St. Raymond's Avenue where a stage was set up for local talent to perform. Streets were closed so people could walk the four block area of Westchester Square in the roadway where vendors and information tables were set up. 


The event was set up by Clearview Festival Productions. Prices per space were $110.00 for Arts & Crafts or Merchandise vendors, and $300.00 for Food Vendors. There were plenty of vendors of all kinds, with the food vendors doing enough business that was lost by the local stores at Westchester Square. There were several bouncy houses and the likes for children, face painting, and other activities for children.


The Westchester Avenue elevated subway is in the background as the street is closed to traffic for the fair. Vendors are on both sides of the street.


Along the way to the stage you could see a restored 1951 Mercury. 


Montefiore Hospital had various information and handouts. 


Some of the booths sold food, even with Wendy's behind them.


As one got closer to the stage on East Tremont Avenue at St. Raymond's Avenue, more vendors were lined up on both sides of the street. 


Above and Below, all day long various local talents took to the stage performing for the crowd that gathered.
