I think I read somewhere that one says "sur l'avenue". Is this right?

This question relates to:French lesson "En vs Dans with locations (French Prepositions of Location)"

You could use "sur" with "se promener" but not with "habiter". For example, "nous sommes allés nous promener sur l'avenue longeant la mer" (we went for a stroll on the avenue along the sea). Hope that helps!
