# Martin Place

Sydney, Australia

Sydney's civic heart, a 473-metre street completed in 1935 after its first section opened in 1892 and pedestrianised in stages from 1971 to 1979. Lined with grand banks and James Barnet's General Post Office, it holds the Cenotaph war memorial and hosts the city's Anzac Day dawn service each year.
