What's your favorite street name, and why? (historical, homeowners, Washington)

Back at home a few towns over, there was a street named Abbey Road, just like the Beatles album. That street name sign was constantly being stolen.

This is great, guys!

Thank you for the history lessons.

I just remembered that when we lived in Yukon Territory, we almost bought a house on Loose Moose Road. (It's a couple of hours east of Whitehorse, on the Alaska Highway.) Not that there weren't enough moose on the loose, LOL, but we just thought the street name was hilarious.

Just went to look it up on Google Maps and look what I found instead:

Pretty funny.

Here in Whistler we have Piccolo Drive, Oboe Place, and Flute Place. I'm a musician, so I rather like those too.

I must confess to a weakness for all things natural, such as Willow Lane, Oak Street, Autumn Drive, Summer Lane, Adventures West, Starwood Drive, Bearpaw Trail, Hawkes Avenue, and so on.

My Uncle-in-law was married on "Raw Meat Ridge Road"

It looked awesome on the invitations!

I was traveling across country once and there was a town with maybe 100 people during tourist season, with a two-lane blacktop "Broadway". It gave me a chuckle.

There's one outside of town called Memory Lane. Every time I see it I laugh. I used to live on Vogue Lane. It was pretty cool to live on the same street as Madonna

Ooh, I like that one. We'll have to put that right next door to the Enchanted (whatever it was). You had me at the word 'enchanted.'

Having attended college in Los Angeles, I've always loved the street names Sunset Blvd. and Pacific Coast Highway. These names epitomize what the west coast lifestyle is about.

Here in the Bay, I love Golden Gate Ave.

Frog Level Rd. Kind of speaks for itself.

Circuit Ct. In many counties there is a legal Circuit Court. Numbered streets are rather boring, but I have seen half streets, such as "16-1/2 St." which makes you wonder was there an error in planning or was the street added later?
