I also heard this while walking home from work. The sidewalk was vibrating.

This location does not have a Special Assembly Occupancy License (SAOL) required by the city to have a DJ and dance floor. I recommend that neighbors who are bothered by this activity make complaints to 311 or the city department of Licensing and Inspection directly with this information.

We have similar problems with Red Zone at 35 S. 2nd Street, and this is what we have been doing:

- At night, call the police at 911 and ask for officers to go to the bar and tell them to turn the music down. (You can also call the 6th district precinct Thurs-Sat morning and file a roll call complaint.) If they turn the music back up, call again. The more neighbors who call, the better.

- Keep a log of the noise disturbance times and descriptions, and file complaints with PA State Police Liquor Control enforcement. It is illegal for liquor licensees under state law to play excessively loud music.

Red Sky is in the process of transferring their liquor license to a new owner, so complaints against them to the PA LCE at this time could possibly have more effect.

This bar isn't authorized to operate an after-hours club, so make sure you and your neighbors call 911 if they are still playing music after 2:00AM. I also recommend that you file complaints with L&I, describing their after-hours activity. Online complaint form: http://www.phila.gov/li/Pages/ReportaProblem.aspx

Thanks. They advertise staying open til 5 am. Also, has calling the cops helped at all? We had issues at another apartment with cops bein paid off to keep quiet. Thanks again. Any info is much appreciated.

That officer no longer has his job. Call 911 and 311.
