Pitt Street Mall is the pedestrianised section of Pitt Street in the Sydney CBD, Australia. It is one block long between Market Street and King Street and is one of Australia's busiest and most cosmopolitan shopping precincts.
Despite its small size, it hosts many flagship chain stores and more than 500 specialty stores. It is one of Sydney's main shopping streets, and floorspace rents are correspondingly the highest in Australia, and the fourth highest in the world in terms of city streets. In addition, CBRE rated Pitt Street Mall as the second most expensive street for retail rents in the world second to only New York City's Fifth Avenue.

Famous quotes containing the words pitt and/or mall:
“The little I know of it has not served to raise my opinion of what is vulgarly called the “Monied Interest;” I mean, that blood-sucker, that muckworm, that calls itself “the friend of government.””
—William, Earl Of Pitt (1708–1778)
“A father ... knows exactly what those boys at the mall have in their depraved little minds because he once owned such a depraved little mind himself. In fact, if he thinks enough about the plans that he used to have for young girls, the father not only will support his wife in keeping their daughter home but he might even run over to the mall and have a few of those boys arrested.”
—Bill Cosby (20th century)
