'''Windy Windy Windy Windy Street''' is a street in [[San Fierro]], [[San Andreas]], located at the eastern edge of the [[Calton Heights]] district. This landmark is modeled after San Francisco's famous Lombard Street, which also bears the name "crookedest street" due to the winding nature with which the street progresses through the one block between Hyde and Leavenworth Streets.

Like its real-life counterpart, Windy Windy Windy Windy Street is very difficult to navigate with an automobile. The tree-lined street is flanked by concrete step-sidewalks for easier passage, but is generally a poor choice for traveling through the city, and exists as more of a spectacle than a useful transportation medium. At the top of the street is one of the most expensive pieces of real estate in San Andreas, the [[Calton Heights Safehouse]].

==Notes==
*Vehicles controlled by NPCs do not actually drive down the street.
*The street is notable for featuring street signs marking its name on both its ends (most named streets in GTA San Andreas are not so marked).
*The street's name "windy" refers to the "winding" curvature rather than the weather being windy (and thus "Windy" is pronounced "wine-dee" when saying the name).
