Dear MEL
Topic Readers,
Road,
Street or Avenue?
“Where
is Times Square?” “It’s at the junction of Broadway and Seventh Avenue.”
When you
get directions to go somewhere in America, you’ll find quite a variation of
titles for the roads, such as street, avenue and of course road to name a few.
But there are many more titles like boulevard, parkway, lane, place, plaza and court.
Are they given just randomly or deliberately?
Though
there are plenty of exceptions, general codes behind those titles seem to exist.
Knowing some of these general descriptions may help you predict what kind of
road you’ll be traveling on.
Enjoy reading
the introductory text and watching a video that presents never-thought-of titling
codes beneath the roads.
Oh,
lastly, but not the least, thank you for reading this 1700th Topic
Reading.
