That is literally a picture of New Haven, Connecticut, not Chicago. (But it is outside Louis Lunch, birthplace of the hamburger and a famously anti-ketchup establishment)

I'd guess it is more likely than not that the dispensers are rendered unusable in that 1 week when they are up.

Dear Heintz,
Thank you for providing an overflowing source of sugary vinegar fruit paste in an urban environment. This added food source will improve our lifestyle tremendously.
Sincerely,
