 in or on a street? The following questions came up in a classroom discussion on prepositions. 1. Do you live in canal street? 2. Do you live on canal street? Should it be in or on in the questions above? I know the ' on canal street ' is correct, but I found it difficult to explain why ' do you live in canal street' is not quite right. Can someone help please. Arun |

| Re: in or on a street? As far as I am concerned both are in common use and are ok. In fact, in the part of England I am from "in" is usual.  greystroke likes this. |
