It's an European style long, tall and thin house with wonky internal geometry. All windows face the street, parallel to the wind, at different heights. That's what gives me the most trouble - getting any air flow to effectively make a C curve.
I thought about it, but it seems like it'd only make things worse by creating an even bigger region with stagnant air in front of the windows, unless I were to invade the street (which is highly illegal, for obvious reasons).
There is literally zero space between the front and the street?
Do you own the house? Is so you can look changing out windows with this vertical swing style to catch the wind. https://homeimprovementsupply.com/images/product/medium/2815.jpg Orientate to catch the wind (but remember you need the air in the house to have a way to flow out too).
The opposite - there's too much space, with buildings on both sides. Think a room as tall as the house in front of it, but with the street-facing wall removed.
So your neighbour's houses are sticking out further? Well you're probably going to have to rely on fans then. And the rolling screen door. Place one fan outside the door pointed into the house. On the other side place it inside the house and pointed out.
