"A rapidly grown night market in Lincoln Heights that saw massive crowds of vendors and visitors fueled in part by TikTok; dozens of stalls sold food, drinks, trinkets and other goods. The market’s expansion provoked pushback from local media and officials, culminating in the alleyway being fenced off without notice to vendors." - Farley Elliott
"Local officials shut down this industrial-street night market over the summer with no advance notice, gating off the block in Lincoln Heights; some vendors continue to sell in the neighborhood but crowds have dwindled significantly, while others have relocated elsewhere to try to sustain income." - Farley Elliott
