I was in Athens so I decided to visit the oldest street in Europe, ΤΡΙΠΟΔΩΝ, and boy was I disappointed!
The street is called "Tripodon", or "Τριπόδων" in Greek. The uppercase letters on the sign, "ΤΡΙΠΟΔΩΝ" look very different, but that's just because I don't understand Greek.
The tripods along it were apparently trophies for performances at the theatre. I read on one site that the tripods were bronze and on another that they were copper. I went with bronze in the script because it sounds nicer, and bronze is made of copper anyway.
This street was a big deal apparently, and lots of famous people would walk along it to the theatre, which is why we know about it from ancient times. Here's some more reading for you:

I’ve been making videos for over four years, and there’s one very consistent message I’ve received over and over: that I need to visit Montréal, because it is the best* city in North America.
So I did. I visited and I spent a week there, travelling all over the city by walking, cycling, and public transit. Oh, and a lot of taxis.
* according to literally hundreds of people who have contacted me about this over the years

Amsterdam is trialing its most ambitious traffic project yet. They are cutting off car traffic on a major 4-lane arterial road through the city. This has got the right-wingers panties in a bunch, but the trial is still underway. Will this lead to a utopian city or carmageddon?
