Since October, SEPTA has closed off several blocks of Girard Avenue from 26th to 34th streets to replace trolley tracks.
"We've had quite a few interruptions. We're very new, we've been open for about three months. So we're dependent on traffic... and traffic has stopped," said Cari Young, the Owner of Remedy."We wanted to offer a place where residents could relax and disconnect and didn't have to travel far," Young said.
She's remaining optimistic that things will take a turn. Other businesses like Platinum Fruit Creations are also looking on the bright side. "I am the fruit lady so if you want fruit come see me. I'm not gonna lie, it's not a big struggle because I see it is going to benefit us during the springtime," explained Council-Grant."The investment in public infrastructure and public transportation always revitalizes cities and it's extremely important for economic activity. We're looking forward to being an active public transit corridor.
While the construction is still underway, Brewerytown businesses want to remind customers to think of them this holiday season. "Brewerytown has everything, we have great food, awesome trinkets... a lot of great things," said Council-Grant.Copyright © 2022 WPVI-TV. All Rights Reserved.
