Mayor of Paris Visits MetraMarket
The Honorable Pierre Schapira, Deputy Mayor of Paris
and member of the European Parliament accompanied

anchor tenant, an authentic French Market and Chicago’s
first year round market, is currently under development
by the Bensidoun family, the largest operators of
open-air food markets in and around Paris. The two
visitors received a tour through the construction
site by Pascal Bensidoun of Bensidoun USA and Bob
Wislow and Camille Julmy of U.S. Equities.
