That's pretty much street. Oh and 180's. Do those everywhere.
Spots aren't something you can say "do this here", it's bmx, do whatever you want. Ledges, banks, rails, curb cuts, whatever really.

Hop off of stuff like loading docks. Learn feebles and smiths and stuff. You can watching some videos of amateur street riders to give you an idea. I'm not a wildly skilled rider so you may be able to do some of the stuff that I do in my videos if you want to check them out.
If you really like Park, ditch riding might be a decent transition to Street riding. Other than that, ledges, rails, stairs, benches etc can all be great to ride. Generally elementary and junior/high schools have decent spots (don't go while school I'd in session) but college campuses I find have waaaay more spots that are worth riding.

I agree with this.
Schools, campuses, post offices, libraries, and some churches usually have pretty good spots.

I always make a point to stay way thr hell away from libraries because they are always really quiet and populated, and will call the cops.
Other than that, the most valuable thing to learn in Street is that if you move things, put them back before you leave so the owners won't remove or skate stop them.

Yeah, you have to be careful whenever you ride street. I like to ride at my local library after 5 whenever there is almost no one there. If you live and ride in a big city, the best time to ride at most buildings is on a Sunday and if it's on any other weekday, try to go after five or you'll most likely be told to leave.
You'll kind of get used to this as you ride street more. It's not a huge deal.
You can do anything you like riding street is quality you will just end up using the most random shit to do tricks off or even onto
Start off with riding curbs around malls and parking lots and you'll developed an eye for street spots . There can be some hidden lines and also it helps your flat riding and gets you to think. Always fun in my case.
