.street
Is .street a real TLD? Who’s applying to run it?
.street is not contested. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list, as of 7 October 2026. It is XYZ.
A fun word for streetwear, street food and wall.street-style names, but few serious projects will make it their main address.
streetwear and street-food brands, urban culture and local-neighbourhood projects, and anyone who wants a named-street address like a famous-street hack
The 2012 applications making the most similar bet. Chosen by AI from every string in that round, without being told what happened to any of them.
Same bet: an everyday geographic common noun sold as an open namespace whose value rests on any local business, neighborhood site, or place-flavored brand wanting "<somewhere>.<place-word>" as its primary identity, with no vertical, company, or community gating who qualifies.
Also a plain settlement-scale place noun offered to all comers, carrying the same dependency on local/civic identity adoption rather than an industry or a trademark holder, and the same risk that people already say the word without ever typing it.
A generic location noun with the same open-generic, anyone-can-use premise, but it is abstract rather than a concrete piece of urban fabric, so it leans more on "somewhere to be" phrasing than on the local-address and street-culture connotations the target trades on.
What a .street domain is
.street is not a TLD yet. It is a string on our record of the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, filed under Culture. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list.
Is the .street domain extension real yet?
.street is not yet a domain extension you can register: nothing resolves under it, and no registrar sells names in it. It is a string applicants have put forward in the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, the process that decides whether it becomes one.
When can you buy a .street domain?
You can’t yet. ICANN publishes every applied-for string on Reveal Day, 7 October 2026 at 18:00 UTC. A .street name can only be registered after that, once the string is delegated and its registry opens. Last round's closest parallel to .street was .city, delegated on 10 July 2014.
Is .street a real TLD?
Not yet. .street is not in the DNS root, so nothing resolves under it. It’s here because .street is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list of applied-for strings. Every entry on this page links to its source.
- XYZ · first recordedICANN
- Band chosen: 30-49 (usable but limited). .street is a common English word with a few real use patterns: streetwear and street-food brands that already use 'street' as part of their identity, urban-culture and street-art projects, and the named-street hack (a famous or local street name as the label). Those give it more than a joke's demand, which is why it is not in the 10-29 band: a streetwear label or a neighbourhood project can plausibly use it as a primary identity without embarrassment. It is not in the 50-69 band because none of those uses is deep enough to sustain primary-identity adoption at volume; by analogy (flagged as analogy), 2012-round place-flavoured generics such as .place, .world, .zone, .town and .space settled into price-driven registration patterns with weak brand signal and thin aftermarkets, and .street reads as a sibling of that group rather than of a category standard like a tech or commerce default. The applicant on the record is XYZ (XYZ.COM LLC), a single confirmed standard application with no contention, and a related .yes application from the same applicant is deactivated; a registry with an existing portfolio and distribution tends, by analogy, to make a string widely available quickly, which helps registration volume but says little about end-use quality. Main market uncertainty: whether the named-street hack and streetwear use produce genuine sustained primary-identity sites, or whether volume comes mostly from promotional pricing and expires at renewal, which would pull the string toward the lower band.
