Streets that intersect more than Once (York, Newtown: yard, top, summer)

[piomode]

Can you think of 2 streets that meet up more than once? One rule is that the alleged intersections must be at least 100 yards apart. Many streets are offset to accomodate half-blocks or whatever it's called. These don't count in my book.

I wouldn't think it's common for such a thing, but I've come across a pair that intersect at least 3 times. Surely there are other examples in Phila where this happens.


Thanks for reading!

Off the top of my head, I know Broad St. and Old York Rd. cross a couple of times.

Broad and Old York Road intersect at two different points. Also Stenton and Germantown although the Stenton near Wayne Junction is not the same as the one that meets with Germantown in Chestnut Hill.

Thanks for the responses. I forgot to mention what my streets were,

Summerdale Ave and Langdon St
meet up twice in zip 19152 (Langdon is a loop street here)
and once in zip 19111

So, I'll meet you at Summerdale and Langdon, and odds are I won't be there (even though I'm there )

That's kind of a confusing intersection, but they definitely only meet once.

This is kind of cheating but Captains way and Admirals way meet twice in Navel Sq.

Does 2nd & Mifflin count? That's not exactly like the other "half-blocks" since the first 2nd keeps going as 3rd.

On mapquest, it doesn't seem to span my 100 yards arbitrary minimum. It's odd enough for honorable mention I think.
