People make their way through a rainy farmers market in Chicago's Logan Square on Oct. 24, 2021.
Esparza praised Ramirez-Rosa and Ald. Daniel La Spata, 1st, whose wards both include parts of Logan Square, for working with the Chicago Police Department and Department of Transportation when she announced the market would be open in an email to customers Friday.“Your push in making this happen has made our farmers market, not only safer, but stronger,” Esparza said of Johnson.
Esparza had tried for weeks to direct wandering pedestrians and confused or frustrated drivers around the market.“No matter how much I beef up with volunteers and staff, it’s just not safe,” Esparza told the Tribune Thursday morning, when the market was still set to be canceled for the weekend after the closure wasn’t granted at the meeting earlier this week. She was considering moving the market away from the neighborhood’s center, she said.
Each year, hundreds of thousands of people visit Logan Square when they come to the market, Ramirez-Rosa said. They end up eating at Logan Square restaurants, shopping at Logan Square stores and getting to know the neighborhood, he said.
