Construction Updates
Driving to the Market? Just a heads up that South 2nd street between Chicago and Park will be closed for the next 1-2 weeks. Chicago and Park streets will still be open, as well as the parking garage and surface lot across the street from the Museum, but there will be no thru traffic on 2nd Street between Chicago and Park. Check out Centerpoint Energy's Construction Updates to plan your route accordingly.
