About Great Portland Street
Situated in the bustling West End, Great Portland Street connects the shopping hub of Oxford Street with other major thoroughfares including Albany Street, Marylebone Road and Euston Road. The road separates the exclusive areas of Fitzrovia and Marylebone. Great Portland Street was developed by the Duke of Portland during the eighteenth century.
Originally known as John Street, the street has a very different feel to its surrounding areas. While Portland Place and Harley Street boast grand and ornate features that are keystones of Marylebone, there is a more creative and alternative lifestyle evident in the parts of Fitzrovia that the route crosses. Great Portland Street itself has a distinct mosaic of small shops and a linear geography, as well as a collection of Edwardian and Victorian buildings.
Great Portland Street has also been known as an arts haven. During the 1950s and 1960s, the street was a popular destination for women's clothing. Composers Felix Mendellsohn and Carl Maria von Weber, essayist Leight Hunt, artist David Wilkie, architect Sir Charles Barry, and others lived and worked along the street.
