Eleventh Street was the longest‚ narrowest‚ and oldest street in the town. It had lots of potholes and rifts. Eleventh Street was a busy street where I spent most of my time. Both sides of the street were lined with stores and restaurants. There were many people walking on the street. There were a lot fun things to do‚ all within walking distance‚ and no matter what time the year‚ the stores were opened to the public‚ except on major holidays.

Rago October 3‚ 2014 Living on the Street Ann Petry’s novel‚ The Street ‚ was published in 1946. This riveting novel narrates the life of a single mother‚ Lutie Johnson‚ and her struggle of living in poverty on the streets of Harlem.
