It can be easy to miss Moment San Jose if you don’t know what you’re looking for, as this quirky collection of pop-up shops is actually located in a downtown parking structure! Regulars make it clear that you won’t want to miss this unique market, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for it next time you’re on North San Pedro Street. 

When you visit, you’ll realize that Moment is actually made up of several mini shops, each specializing in something different. One shop focuses on horticulture, selling everything from easy-to-care-for air plants to colorful bouquets that will brighten your home. You’ll also find a leather shop where you can customize small products to your liking, such as monogrammed keychains. Other shops sell small-batch T-shirts, paper products and more, and each shop is independently owned and operated. Be aware that the shops here operate on six-month rotating leases, so the shop line-up may change before you return.
