Beloved Brooklyn Heights market closes after 30 years

All in One Deli Mart, the grocery and deli located at 79 Henry St., officially closed its doors last weekend. Owner Minki Lee and his family cited rising costs, higher property taxes, and post-COVID rent increases as factors that made the business unsustainable. The market had served the community for over three decades and was a local fixture, expanding in 2012 to include an adjacent storefront.

Throughout the final days of operation, neighborhood residents gathered to say goodbye to the Lee family and longtime staff members, including Dalila Gomez, who worked at the register for 12 years. Patrons described the store as a community pantry and a vital social hub, noting that the owners have been assisting displaced employees in finding new work at other local markets.
