But it wouldn't be a trip to Europe without some sort of post about street dimensions. So here's a primary retail street in downtown Ponta Delgada — 6.7m from building face to building face, or about the size of a standard two-way drive aisle in Toronto.And here's the narrowest street/lane that I came across on the island. I couldn't find a street name, but it did have utility meters on it, and it was about the size of a residential building corridor.We also stumbled upon quite the street party in this same area. There's a lot happening in this photo.I did also manage to find a memory card reader for my camera at a Continente (supermarket) along the way. So make sure you're following Globizen's Instagram page. Regularly scheduled programming will resume tomorrow. ## Publication Information - [Brandon Donnelly](https://brandondonnelly.com/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://brandondonnelly.com/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@brandondonnelly): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/donnelly_b): Follow on Twitter ## Optional - [Collect as NFT](https://brandondonnelly.com/the-narrowest-street-or-lane-on-sao-miguel): Support the author by collecting this post - [View Collectors](https://brandondonnelly.com/the-narrowest-street-or-lane-on-sao-miguel/collectors): See who has collected this post
