Fleet Street
- For the television series tentatively titled Fleet Street, see Boston Legal.
Fleet Street is a famous London street, traditionally the home of the national press. Despite the fact that all the major newspapers have now moved out of their Fleet Street offices (most to the Docklands), the street's name continues to be used as a synonym for the British press. The last major news office, Reuters left in 2003.
At Temple Bar to the west, as Fleet Street crosses the boundary out of the City of London, it becomes The Strand; to the east it evolves into Ludgate Hill. The nearest tube stations are Temple, Chancery Lane, and Blackfriars. It is very close to City Thameslink station.
The street is named after the River Fleet which it once bridged. (Today the river flows underground.)
