Honover Street, I think that is the correct spelling. It is right across from Scott Joplin School

It is Honore. I believe the correct way to say it is ON-OR. I always say(as many other people do) ON-OR-RAY though.  |

"ONNERY" is how I pronounce it. |

Yeah, I've always heard it said as ON-OR-RAY, and say it that way way myself. It's kind of like Devon Ave, pronounced DAH-VON and not DEH-VEN. |

There's an old Chicago joke, one in poor taste I might add, that goes like this:
"There are three streets in Chicago that rhyme with Regina: Paulina, Melvina, and Lunt."

I've always heard "Honore" pronounced "ON-ray" and "Devon" pronounced "Deh-VON".

Just found a posting for a $750 2 bedroom apartment in Auburn Gresham. Claims to be remodeled.
The address is 77th & Carpenter.
Any information on this area?
