Untested, but this should give you what you want (2 changes to your code):
string strStreet="";
FileStream fs = new
FileStream(myXml.xml",FileMode.Open);
XmlTextReader myReader = new XmlTextReader(fs);
while(myReader.Read())
{
if(myReader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element)
{
switch(myReader.Name)
{
case "street":
strStreet = myReader.Value;
}
}
}
