Time Out readers ranked our very own Wellington Street in Verdun as “the coolest street in the world” earlier this month, beating out Deptford High Street in London, Hayes Street in San Francisco and 30 others. Admittedly, the online magazine’s polling method is not entirely random. Readers of Time Out chose to answer their survey question, posed in a dozen languages, and more than 20 000 of them did. Time Out is a global empire, but is probably best known in Europe and North America, so it’s probably no surprise that the majority of cities that made the list are in those parts of the world. Even so, it’s fun to peruse the list and imagine yourself exploring the streets of Melbourne, Mumbai, or Mexico City.
Here’s a link to the Time Out story.
