A street is one of the 3 types of properties in Monopoly. The other 2 types are railroads and utilities. A street is the only type that the houses & hotels can be built on it. In the traditional Monopoly, there are 22 streets in total.
In the traditional Monopoly board, there are the total of 40 spaces. Out of these 40 spaces, 22 of them are streets (more than half, or 55%). Each street has the color strip on its own space where the houses & hotels can be placed. Three or two streets share a same color. Six or five streets are on a same side of the 4 sides of the board. As the players go around the board from GO, the streets are getting more expensive to buy but more valuable for collecting rent.
Owning just 1 street in a color group is not enough because you are limited to the basic rent of the unimproved lot for that empty street. To improve a street, you need to build houses & hotels that will drive the rents up. In order for you to build, you must own all the streets in a color group.
A street can be mortgaged for half the purchase price. If any street is mortgaged, you cannot build any further in that street's color group. If there are buildings in the streets in that color group, you must sell all of these buildings first before you mortgage any street in that color. You can unmortgage a street. All the streets in a color group must be unmortgaged in order for you to build once again.
