Walnut Street
Center City artery
Walnut Street is a common American street name, appearing in cities and towns across the country.
Like other tree-named streets (Oak, Elm, Maple), it typically dates to 18th- or 19th-century urban planning when developers named thoroughfares after native trees.
Philadelphia's Walnut Street is perhaps the most historically notable, running through the city's center since colonial times.
