“Since all the things that happened on South Street previously it’s very important that people come down to South Street and enjoy themselves,” Riley said.The South Street Headhouse District is launching “Meet Me on South Street,” where dozens of local bars and restaurants will have food and drink promotions.“South Street District, we are still here and strong and definitely come out and support the small businesses and all the boutiques,” Riley said.
Eyewitness News did not see the extra police presence that was there after the shooting. Safety is a concern for many people who live and work in the area.“We are just hanging in there and hoping that people come back down,” Riley said. People CBS3 spoke with say they are excited to see the vibrant and multicultural business corridor come to life.“I think it’s great. The answer is to keep continuing on trying to find something good for the community instead of just stopping everything and letting the negative stuff take over,” a man said.Meet Me on South Street will be every Thursday. The restaurants and businesses will have different themes and specials each week and they are inviting everyone to come down and check it out.
