Coventry Street

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coventry Street is a short London street, within the City of Westminster, running from Piccadilly Circus to Leicester Square. The street is the main conduit between Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square and at the weekend up to 150,000 people walk from one to another along the street. Buses traveling south from Regent Street or west along Shaftesbury Avenue inevitably pass along the top of the street, where it intersects The Haymarket, with the consequence that the street can be heavily congested. It has a yellow square on the Monopoly board named after it.

The Hard Rock Casino, Trocadero shopping centre, the Café De Paris, and the Prince of Wales Theatre are all located on this street.
