With the Gay Pride Parade coming up this weekend and the 40th anniversary of Stonewall being observed, this is sure to get some attention: Following a series of assaults and antics in general, some Villagers want the Christopher Street Pier closed at 10 p.m. (instead of 1 a.m.) and the Christopher Street PATH station locked up on weekends, the Villager reports. Cops have already started closing tiny Christopher Park in Sheridan Square around 9 p.m., a park "no one can sit in and enjoy because of these bums that sit there and menace everyone and defecate," says a local bar owner.
