Flea market has new home in Hubbard

HUBBARD — Valley View Antique Shopping Mall in Brookfield has closed its doors after years of operation, but many of the vendors who called the market home have found a new place to do business.

Jeff Anglin and his son Dustin Anglin have started the Hubbard Route 62 Flea Market, operating Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays on Youngstown-Hubbard Road just inside the Hubbard limits. A couple dozen of the vendors who once operated at Valley View have set up shop in the new location.

“Our family ran the auctions out of Valley View in the back before they closed, so we knew all the people and that made their transition here a little easier, “ said Dustin Anglin. “Everyone seems happy.”

Del Lambert had been setting up tables covered in unique glassware, gold and other types of jewelry for sale at Valley View for more than nine years. He is happy with the new location, but said it will take time to get the operation up to full speed.

“It just takes time to get the advertising and let everyone know we are here,” he said. “It will be OK after awhile, but it just takes time.”
