This piece provides a thorough overview of the existing market, the sounds and the characters, and touches on the potential problems associated with the pending move to the Bronx. Packed with facts and figures, and sad reflections on the state of the fishing economy (eg. hardly any fish arrive by boat anymore, the tractor trailer is the name of the game these days), this piece paints a complex picture of the issues surrounding the move and as such would be a welcome addition to any show on the fishing or food industry.
