My fave is "Spyglass Dr" in Barton Hills. Cool name.

Your fave?

I had a friend that actually live on Easy street for a while, and could walk to work from there...it was very appropriate.

I've always been a fan of Butte Blvd off 2222 near Mt Bonnell. I know what it really says but my inner 5 year old giggles every time.

Anything with a 1/2 added to the name must be considered. Just outside of the city limits 'up here' is Hairy Man Rd and Old Baldy Dr. is within the city limits. Too bad the two don't intersect at some point .

Not in Austin, but I did live on N and 1/2 street in Galveston for a short while.

Also, in Lake Jackson, they named all their streets 'ways', such as 'This Way', 'That Way', 'Any Way', etc. Confusing as hell, but entertaining just the same.
