Its indoor location also makes it a convenient place to regroup when you need a break from the crowds\u2014or when the weather takes a turn. The city expects significant traffic and parking impacts throughout the championships, with routes changing depending on the day’s event, which makes having a reliable place like the Market to meet even more valuable.<\/p>\n
