Riga Fereou Street
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Riga Fereou Street is Patras' main street linking with 28 Oktovriou (Karolou) Street and near Papaflessa Street with parts of the street running near the OSE SPAP Line. The street is one way southbound and has no northbound artery which is used by another street to the north. The street runs north of Olga Square with shops located by. More shops are by the downtown area while eight storey residential and neo-classical buildings cover the north, but lower residential buildings to the south. Almost all of the buildings are under four stories.
[edit] History
The street was added in the mid-20th century and was named and became numbered. It was later paved. After World War II and the Greek Civil War, a part of the area added buildings to the north and the south. Traffic lights were added on Kolokotronis, Agiou Nikolaou, Ermou, Patreos, Votsis and Gounaris Streets and later on 28 Oktovriou (Karolou) and Papaflessa streets. Street lights were also added as well.
