The street today is a historic monument on its own, covering about 1 km (0.6 mi) in length and connects the south and north parts of the old city. During the <a href="/wiki/EOKA" title="EOKA">EOKA struggle</a> that ran from 1955 to 1959, the street acquired the informal nickname <i><a href="/wiki/Ledra_Street" title="Ledra Street">The Murder Mile</a></i> in reference to the frequent targeting of the British colonialists by nationalist fighters along its course.<sup id="cite_ref-78" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-78"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>74<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-79" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-79"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>75<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1963, during the outbreak of hostilities between the Greek and Turkish Cypriot communities, following the announcement of amendments to the Cypriot Constitution, Turkish Cypriots withdrew to the northern part of Nicosia which became one of the many <a href="/wiki/Turkish_Cypriot_enclaves" title="Turkish Cypriot enclaves">Turkish Cypriot enclaves</a> which existed throughout the island. Various streets which ran between the northern and southern part of the city, including Ledra Street, were blockaded. During the Turkish army invasion of Cyprus in 1974, Turkish troops occupied northern Nicosia (as well as the northern part of Cyprus). A buffer zone was established across the island along the ceasefire line to separate the northern Turkish controlled part of the island, and the south. The buffer zone runs through Ledra Street. After many failed attempts on reaching agreement between the two communities, Ledra Street was reopened on 3 April 2008. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Nicosia_01-2017_img09_StJohn_the_Apostle_Church.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/Nicosia_01-2017_img09_StJohn_the_Apostle_Church.jpg/170px-Nicosia_01-2017_img09_StJohn_the_Apostle_Church.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="213" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/Nicosia_01-2017_img09_StJohn_the_Apostle_Church.jpg/255px-Nicosia_01-2017_img09_StJohn_the_Apostle_Church.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/Nicosia_01-2017_img09_StJohn_the_Apostle_Church.jpg/340px-Nicosia_01-2017_img09_StJohn_the_Apostle_Church.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2750" data-file-height="3438" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/St._John%27s_Cathedral,_Nicosia" title="St. John's Cathedral, Nicosia">St. John's Cathedral</a></figcaption></figure> <p>To the east of Ledra Street, <a href="/wiki/Faneromeni_Square" title="Faneromeni Square">Faneromeni Square</a> was the centre of Nicosia before 1974.
