Plural of corso; Italian open-air streets, boulevards, or a type of social promenade.
From Italian corso, from Latin cursus (course, running). In Italian cities, the corso is traditionally the main street where people promenade, originally named for its 'running' or flowing traffic.
The Italian passeggiata tradition (evening stroll on the corso) shaped how European cities developed—people designed streets specifically for social gathering and seeing/being seen, influencing urban planning worldwide.
