It's been 30 years since Maxwell Street Market last held on Maxwell StreetCHICAGO --It's coming back to its original University Village location when it opens this summer, but that's not the only nod to nostalgia.It's been 30 years since the Maxwell Street Market was last held on Maxwell Street.
It also famously took center stage in the 1980 film "The Blues Brothers," starring Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi. And, of course, there is no Maxwell Street Market without Jim's Original, which, for decades, was at Halsted and Maxwell streets, located in the heart of the market itself, doling out its famous Polish sausages and pork chop sandwiches.
The market's return was announced to business owners by the city over a Zoom call just last week. The response has been mostly positive, especially from those who yearn to bring back a little of that old-school flavor.Unlike the Maxwell Street Market of old, however, the new market will set up shop for six days only, taking place on the last Sunday of each month, starting this week and going through the end of October.
