#20 - street naming


Your town plans to create a new side street between a grouping of several large, abandoned lots. Once the street has been completed, the remaining land will be converted to smaller lots where additional homes will be built.

The city has decided to take nominations for the name of the new street. Every citizen has been invited to submit one suggestion, which should include the proposed name followed by a generic designation (lane, avenue, boulevard, etc). The city council will then select ten of these entries and a town-wide vote will be held to name the street, though the city reserves the right to select the official suffix.

The new street will be located near the edge of the town in a relatively quiet area. What should the street be called?

I think it should be called
"Eight Grand Alley." Because if anyone is going to build a new house in this economy, the tax credit is going to play into the decision. btw... watching these cavs is frustrating.

Hmmm, I've seen some pretty interesting street names in my day, including the road next to ours growing up - Random Drive. I would probably go with something inspiring like Break of Day Boulevard or Carpe Diem Terrace. I'd much prefer to write something like that on an envelope than Random Drive!

Easy Street! (:

Not really, but that'd totally attract people and I'm not sure I have a real answer...

No real reason, popped into my head sometime this week.

I'd probably submit "Ross Road". I like the alliteration and because my dad had all girls the Ross name is officially dead. It would be a way for it to live on.
