The largest summer street festival in South Philadelphia returned for the first time since the start of the pandemic Sunday, bringing hundreds of car lovers to the neighborhood.
The 15th Annual Car Show and Street Festival took place on East Passyunk Avenue and featured more than 200 classic, muscle, and antique cars, as well as 160 independently owned businesses along the strip.
"Since these last two years, we have been doing just drive-bys, saying happy birthday to everybody, beeping the horn and moving on so it's time to get everything together and get it rolling," said Kevin Frazier Sr., the president of Living the Dream Corvette Club. "To have this be activated on the street, on East Passyunk Avenue in South Philly is just an amazing experience for people to come down, stroll the street, see all of our incredible businesses and maybe get a good idea of what they want to come back to after the show's over," said Adam Leiter, the executive director of EPBIA.
"You get to meet everybody, greet everybody, it's always nice. You get to meet more people than you would if you were just in the store unless they stop in and you get to see them," said Capo, who's owned Capo Coin Shop since 1966.
