The Dekalb Market has come a long way from its origins as a ragtag collection of food vendors located inside shipping containers. On Friday, the market was reborn (if in name only) as The Dekalb Market Hall, a gigantic new food hall inside the equally gigantic City Point development in Downtown Brooklyn. The new market joins such luminaries as Alamo Drafthouse, Century 21, and Target.

Prior to opening, some big name vendors had already been announced, including the first ever expansion of Katz's Deli, which has made a new Brooklyn home for itself at the Hall. Hard Times Sundaes—which recently jumped on the food hall bandwagon at Urbanspace Vanderbilt—will operate two eateries here: a burger joint similar to what Andrew Zurica's been doing in his truck and a new bagel operation with bread rings from Mill Basin Bagel Cafe. Arepa Lady will be there, too.

Check out the full vendor list below, which includes over 40 different food vendors including ready-to-eat foodstuffs alongside a butcher, cheese shop, bakery and fishmonger.
