'''South Street''' is a street in [[Galesburg]]. It runs east-west, and marks the 300 block south. The street runs from the western end where it meets the [[Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe]] [[railroad]] right-of-way shortly past [[Harding Street]] to the eastern end where it meets [[Kiwanis Park]], with a gap in the middle between [[Grand Avenue]] and [[Farnham Street]].

West of [[Broad Street]] it is called '''West South Street''', and east of Broad Street it is called '''East South Street'''.

==Features==
[[Knox College]]'s [[Postal Services|mailing]] address is 2 East South Street. [[Old Main]] straddles the north-south zero line along [[Broad Street]]. South Street also separates the [[apartment]]s and northern [[off-campus]] living areas from the rest of campus. [[TKE]], [[Beta]], [[Alumni Hall]], [[GDH]], [[Hamblin]], the [[Old Jail]], and [[SMC]] all abut South

The [[Knox County Courthouse]] is located at South and [[Cherry Street]]. [[Standish Park]] occupies the block behind it west to Cedar Street, where [[Broad Street]] would otherwise run to intersect with South.

[[Quick Sam's]] is located at the corner of South and [[Academy Street]].

South Street and [[Seminary Street]] intersect in a sunken intersection in the [[Seminary Street Underpass]], and share a right-of-way through the underpass.

Except in the area around Knox College and downtown Galesburg, South Street is primarily residential.

South Street used to be a very busy thoroughfare during commute times, as it connected with [[Monomouth Boulevard/St. Joseph Road]] to give easy access to [[Maytag]]. Since the Maytag closure, traffic on South has calmed, although it is still often quite fast. The school and the city, at the behest of the [[Student Senate]] [[Safety and Services Committee]], installed solar-powered traffic warning signs. The signs flash and are very bright and distract drivers from watching out for pedestrians.
