It connects Henryk Sienkiewicz Street with Henryk Siemiradzki Street. It is a single-carriageway road.

History The street in its current form was laid out in 1893. Originally, it ran from Henryk Siemiradzki Street to Juliusz Słowacki Avenue, and its extension beyond the avenue to Henryk Sienkiewicz Street took place in the 1930s.

A year after its establishment, in 1894, the street was named after Teofil Lenartowicz – a Polish ethnographer, sculptor, conspirator, and Romantic poet.
