Ald. Osterman says in his Friday newsletter:
"Last night was the final Argyle Night Market with a huge turnout of over 600 people. The Vietnamese Association of Illinois also led a lantern parade in which over 300 people participated! Thank you to everyone who helped make the market such a huge success, especially Uptown United, Uptown Business Partners, DCASE and all the vendors, entertainers and volunteers who participated every week to make it happen. The Argyle Night Market was a brand new concept for the City of Chicago, mixing a traditional farmer's market with a small street festival, and we are already looking forward to bringing it back next year!"
I'm impressed with what I saw this year. I believe there is much potential for this. I wonder if anyone has ever thrown around the idea of having a German Christmas market in the Uptown during the holidays.
ReplyDeleteArgyle Nights was great! ScottFreeCDs, I believe. Lincoln Square hosts a Christkindlmarket.
