Answer:

Being blind.

Explanation:

Participial phrase is a group of words consisting of a participle (present or past participle) which acts as a main word, and a modifier ( present participle ends  on -ing, while past participle has different suffixes which depends on the verb is regular or irregular). Whatever participle it may be, these phrases always act as an adjective in a sentence, modifying nouns. Knowing this, the only possible answer is being blind; other answers don't contain present or past participle. Also, this phrase modifies the word street, which is a noun, so it functions as an adjective.
