On weekend nights, police plan on sometimes closing down 5th Street to Front Street, starting around 9:30pm. The closures are a way to crack down on dirtbike riders and tailgaters who blast music.

At some point over the holiday weekend, Lt. Steven Ricci, commanding officer of the South Street Police Mini Station, expects to make a decision he has been trying to put off for weeks: whether it’s time to put up barricades and close down parts of South Street.

But while residents have applauded the shutdowns as a way to improve quality of life, some business owners say the barricades threaten to maintain a stranglehold on the iconic Philly thoroughfare, just as it shows “The only resource they are giving to police to deal with these issues are these stanchions that are pitting business owners versus residents,” she said. “It’s not sustainable.”

“Everyone wants to live near a vibrant commercial corridor,” said Cait Allen, president of the Queen Village Neighbors Association. “But right now, there are a lot of behaviors that detract from that. Putting up the barricades is one of the few realistic options that we currently have to curb the mayhem.”
