Stadiou Street

The project was cut short for lack of funding, but the name remained.

In the 19th century, Greek public servants were not permanent but could be hired or sacked on a minister's whim.

Streetcars and trolleys were added in the 20th century and the street was mainly two-way.

After the Greek Civil War, it became one-way with three lanes and parking spaces.

Shopping traditionally focused on clothing and tailoring, which spread from intersecting Aiolou Street, while the area around and off Klafthmonos Square was in earlier decades the hub of the electrical appliance market.
