West Side Market is a supermarket at 110th and Broadway. After being closed for three years due to the construction of a new building on its site, it reopened on June 1, 2007.

History

The market originally located on the ground floor of the terracotta building then located on the northeast corner of 110th and Broadway. It was next to Columbia Hot Bagels. When the building owner decided to build a condiminium at the site, West Side Market and CoBag had to close. [1]

Legal wrangling over zoning law caused several months of construction delays, ending in the destruction of what was then the oldest existing commercial structure in Morningside Heights. [2] West Side Market opted to return to the new building, while CoBag chose not to. [3]
