I live in the area, and am generally a pretty urban minded guy... but sorry Ozy, closing 10th Street off to cars would be totally insane in the membrane. Maybe if there was better access between Memorial Drive and 14th/Centre Streets, you'd have an argument, but as it stands it would just push everyone into the residential streets of Hillhurst and Sunnyside...which would piss off drivers and residents alike.
Closing something like Kensington Crescent is a much doable idea.
