Famous Cities and their Streets
Certain cities are known for their grand streets, boulevards, avenues, etc. Quite often a city will have one street that everyone agrees is spectacular.
Paris---Champs Eysees New York---Fifth Avenue Munich--- Maximilianstrasse San Francisco---Lombard Street Zurich---Bahnhofstrasse What would you say are the most famous streets in the following cities: London, Amsterdam, Madrid, Lisbon, Athens, Rome, etc |
Tokyo - Ginza
Boston - Newbury Street Los Angeles - Rodeo Drive (although one could also argue Hollywood, Sunset, and Santa Monica Boulevards.) Dublin - Grafton Street |
Philadelphia - Broad St.
Chicago - Michigan Ave. Boston - Commonwealth Ave. Memphis - Beale St. Los Angeles - Sunset Blvd. Beverly Hills - Rodeo Dr. NYC - Broadway! New Orleans - Bourbon St. |
St Petersburg, RF - Nevsky Prospect

Edited to add: Longest street in the world |
Bangkok: Silom Road, and Sukumvit Road
Pattaya: Beach Road, and Pattaya Central Road correction: for Los Angeles, the main/most central boulevard is Wilshire Blvd. Sydney: i guess the one with that famous bridge that everyone just loves to rave about... cause nothing thrills me more when traveling than seeing a bridge. |
Not the same definition of "famous" but:
Any small town in America = Main Street ^ :D |
Vienna - Ringstrasse (multiple names as you go around it) or Kartner Strasse
Barcelona - Las Ramblas Atlanta - Peachtree Street Washington - Pennsylvania Avenue |

London is a tough call, maybe Regent or Oxford, but I've always had a thing for Baker Street thanks to Gerry Rafferty
I could make an arguement for New York and Wall Street. |
