From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A shopping street or shopping district is a designated road or quarter of a city/town that is composed of individual retail establishments (such as stores, boutiques, restaurants, and shopping complexes). Such areas will typically be pedestrian-oriented, with street-side buildings, wide sidewalks, etc. [1] [2]

They may be located along a designated street, or clustered in mixed-use commercial area within the city. In larger cities, there may be multiple shopping streets or districts, often with distinct characteristics each. Often times, businesses in these areas will be represented by a designated business improvement association.
