The market takes over a block of Argyle Street in Uptown every Thursday during the summer. On the market's last night of the season, residents reflect on how the event brings them together — and on their changing community.August 30, 2019
The Argyle Night Market is an annual Uptown summer tradition and this year's season came to a close this week. Uptown is among Chicago’s most culturally diverse neighborhoods and has traditionally been a port of entry for immigrants and refugees. But many fear the character of Uptown is changing as the lakefront community gentrifies.
"I like the way the Argyle Nights brings the people to Argyle Street because once this is over you’re not going to see this incredible buffet of human beings flowing around here. So I would love the camaraderie and the safety and the respect that comes through Argyle Nights to stick around."Rich Troche lives in Uptown and co-founded Everybody’s Coffee, a coffee shop and roastery located in the neighborhood.
In 2014, the city honored John by naming his childhood block “Honorary John 'Vietnam' Nguyen Way.” On “JVN Night,” Nguyen’s parents coordinate with John’s friends to bring stage performances that showcase hip hop, spoken word and breakdancing performances.Rose Nguyen, mother of John “Vietnam” Nguyen
