Đặng Thai Mai: the shrine street, and what the upgrade programme means here

Đặng Thai Mai: what the approved list says

Đặng Thai Mai appears three times in Hanoi’s 2026 to 2030 list for the Tây Hồ ward: the first phase of the road itself, a new route running from alley 50 Đặng Thai Mai through to Quảng Khánh street, and a link joining Đặng Thai Mai to Quảng Bá street and Tây Hồ road. The new Tứ Liên Bridge, the largest project in the list, is nearby.

Two things are worth saying plainly. The published window, 2026 to 2030, belongs to the whole programme rather than to this street. And the road is listed as phase one, which means the work here is staged rather than one job with one finishing date. No completion date for Đặng Thai Mai has been published, and we would rather tell you that than give you a date we made up.

If you are looking at a home on or near this street, ask us what is happening at that address now. If we do not know, we will say so, and we will find out.

Ask us: what works are happening on this street right now, and what should I expect outside this address over the next twelve months?

Phủ Tây Hồ is on this street, and the first and fifteenth are not normal days

There is a second thing about Đặng Thai Mai that agency copy never mentions. Phủ Tây Hồ, arguably the most visited shrine in Hanoi, is at number 52. On the first and the fifteenth of each lunar month, and through Tết, thousands of people come. Traffic on this street on those days is not the traffic on other days. If you work from home and hate being boxed in, that matters more than the square metreage.

What is on the street

Elegant Suites Westlake and Fraser Suites sit on the street. So do Lion Mall and Syrena Shopping Centre, a WinMart, Quảng An Primary School, the Kazakh embassy, Chùa Phổ Linh, Capella Coffee Roaster and Kiez Vegan. The Quảng An pickleball club is thirty metres off it.

Who it suits

Our honest recommendation: this is a lively, extremely well-connected street with a major shrine on it, and it is in the part of Tây Hồ the city is investing in. If you want quiet above everything else, Võng Thị and Nhật Chiêu are quieter streets and always were.
