Soi38Closing

26 MAY 2015 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: People eat at street food stalls on Sukhumvit Soi 38 in Bangkok, one of the most famous street food locations in the Thai capital. The food carts and small restaurants along the street have been popular with tourists and Thais alike for more than 40 years. The family that owns the land along the soi recently decided to sell to a condominium developer and not renew the restaurant owners' leases. More than 40 restaurants and food carts will have to close. The first wave of closings could start as soon June 21 and all of the restaurants are supposed to close over the next several months.
