	Refs:	Honestly, I'm not familiar with the Japanese dictionaries, but Wikipedia and niconicopedia dictionary entries seem to back up the usage. I'm guessing someone can find a better reference if necessary. Wikipedia: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/街 niconicopedia: http://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/街
	Comments:	So yeah... kinda surprised there's not already a reference to this exact usage (#5). One could argue that it overlaps with meanings one and two, but the nuance of being a sort- of main gathering place seems pretty important to me.
