Organizers said the market is just getting too big. It has been growing in size and popularity, and the city needed to close streets to make it safer. "We are just getting way too busy," said Logan Square Chamber of Commerce Executive Producer Nilda Esparza. "Volunteers are coming back, but it's just not enough.

There were some tough disagreements, but we had to keep pushing," Esparza said."We have small businesses, entrepreneurs that are providing a service to the people of Chicago," Johnson said. "One of the ways we are going to build a better, stronger, safer Chicago is by coming together. This is a clear display of who we are as a city.
