What makes a street “cool?” Is it just a general vibe, a friendly warmth that’s hard to pin down, but which you know when you feel it?
Time Out reckons it’s all of the above – the global media company’s put together its list of the “coolest streets in the world right now”, factoring in each street’s food offerings, drink options, cultural delights, nightlife and overall sense of community.
It’s not the first time a Melbourne-based street’s graced Time Out’s list, with Gertrude Street and Smith Street featuring in. Melbourne’s omnipresence led Glynn to suggest “Melburnians are spoiled for choice when it comes to well-trodden thoroughfares that deliver on food, culture and fun.”Melbourne’s High Street is located in the southeast of the coastal Australian city and criss-crosses the suburbs of Northcote, Thornbury and Preston.
“My neighbors are all independent locally owned businesses, you won’t find any big corporate brands, a great mix of hospo, live music, retail, health and wellness and all the traders have each other backs,” Matheison told CNN Travel.“We don’t exist without the awesome locals,” he said. Meanwhile, the number three spot is claimed by East Eleventh in Austin, Texas – lauded by Time Out for packing a lot into a short quarter-mile. On East Eleventh,is the perfect place to see live music in “a makeshift venue that feels like a permanent house party,” according to Time Out.Time Out also notes how some of the world’s busiest streets have changed for the better in recent years – with many becoming “more walkable and pleasant places to spend our time.
