Cultural Art Space

In addition to a wide range of shops and attractive dining options, 40th Street also breeds many cultural landmarks with far-reaching influence. One of the well-known but low-key art galleries regularly holds various themed exhibitions, attracting many artists and enthusiasts to gather and exchange ideas.

In addition, there is a small theater that performs original theatrical works all year round, bringing a refreshing audio-visual enjoyment to the audience and inspiring more thinking possibilities. It is these cultural and artistic institutions that work together to build a rich and diverse atmosphere throughout the neighborhood.

Daily Life in the Eyes of Residents

In order to better understand the real life situation of people on this street, we specially invited several friends who have lived here for a long time to share their opinions. "Every morning I go to the newly opened bakery downstairs to buy a freshly baked croissant pastry with a latte to start the day." A young mother smiled and said, "It feels like a big family here!"

Another retired old man also expressed his deep feelings for this land: "I have lived for nearly 20 years. It is really not easy but precious to keep the simple and pure background color while watching the continuous change and growth of the surrounding environment." Through their unpretentious words, we are closer to the essence of this community.
