> 5th Avenue > European and Catalan Ranking > Portal de l'Àngel dimarts, 9 de novembre de 2004
5th Avenue in New York is the most expensive shopping street in the world, according to the report Main Streets Across the World 2004 made public by the consultants Cushman & Wakefield at the end of October.
To be precise, the report specifies that the average cost of renting per square metre in 5th Avenue can reach as much as 8,406 euros a year, with an increase, in the most commercial stretch, of 12% compared to the previous year. This reaffirms the leading position of the Manhattan street, which also headed the reports of 2002 and 2003. Behind 5th Avenue come the Champs Elysees in Paris, at 6,287 euros annually, and Causeway Bay, in Hong Kong, at 5,036, which were already in second and third position, respectively, in the two previous reports. The report produced by Cushman & Wakefield tracks the 229 most expensive shopping thoroughfares across a total of forty-five countries.
5th Avenue5th Avenue is the main axis of the island of Manhattan, dividing it into two sectors, the East Side and the West Side. It is one of the most famous streets in the world, with exclusive shops, famous art galleries (Metropolitan Museum of Art, Guggenheim Museum...) and buildings symbolic of this city of skyscrapers, such as the Empire State Building, the tallest building in the world until the beginning of the 1970s, and the neo-gothic St Patrick's cathedral, seat of the archbishop of New York.
European and Catalan RankingIf we concentrate on Europe, below the Champs Elysees, we find four streets in London: Oxford Street, Bond Street, Covent Garden and Brompton Road. In our country, the thoroughfares with the highest prices are Portal de l'Àngel and Passeig de Gràcia, in Barcelona, Colom in València, Diagonal and Rambla de Catalunya, also in Barcelona, and Avinguda Jaume III in Palma de Mallorca, in that order.
Portal de l'Àngel
+ Barcelona's Portal de l'Àngel.
Portal de l'Àngel is therefore the most expensive place to rent retail premises. This leading position is explained, to a certain extent, by the fact of being a very central and pedestrianised street, and by its frequently changing offer of retail outlets. This does not mean, however, that the firms which are found in this street are necessarily the most expensive in the city. In fact, there are more prestigious firms in the vicinity of Passeig de Gràcia than in Portal de l'Àngel.
