This is Chicago's oldest market — the historic Maxwell Street Market! Once known as the "Ellis Island of the Midwest," this market has a rich history from its creation by Jewish immigrants in the late 19th century to being the birthplace of the Chicago blues and making a cameo in "The Blues Brothers." 😎 You can visit the free market to buy goods and foods, see performances, and more. 📍 Maxwell Street, between Halsted St and Union Ave, and Union Ave between Liberty St and James M Rochford St 🗓
