Upper Thames Street

While tooling around the lower half of this popular street, don't forget there's an upper section that holds its own as well. The district initiates at the crossing of Thames and Farewell Street (dubbed such because of the two cemeteries adjoining the street). A number of restaurants, nightspots and shops have congregated in this area, making it an excellent destination for a good time. It also includes Washington Square which has the largest concentration of Colonial buildings in the U.S.
