It seems like a lot of cities have strange street names...what are some around you?

I've come across:

Bonus Ally Road (by far the strangest) Carton Ave Winner Ave (In one of the not-so-nice sections of town) Expense St. (Also in one of the not-so-nice sections of town)

Date: 3/18/2006 4:14:00 PM  From Authorid: 60089    We have a weird street name by a church.. I can't say it or I'll be banned :P  
Date: 3/18/2006 4:15:00 PM  From Authorid: 42703    Where I live all the roads are named after Greek mythology,for example the road I live on is Themistocles Place. Most of the road names here are really long and hard to pronounce.  
Date: 3/18/2006 5:29:00 PM  From Authorid: 39370    Well, where I live, since we are so close to NASA, all of our streets have "spacey" names (Luna Drive, Mercury Ave, Appolo Ave, etc). So, I've always thought that was kinda neat   
Date: 3/18/2006 5:47:00 PM  From Authorid: 42945    Most of the street names round my area are named after birds....  
Date: 3/18/2006 6:12:00 PM  From Authorid: 63200    Laf, where we used to live, we lived close to Boone's Lick. Here, there are Manslick and Pope's Lick. I mean, I am *sure* these were named after places those people saw saltlicks that drew wild animals, but nowadays, they just crack me up. :> --EM of GW  
Date: 3/18/2006 6:36:00 PM  From Authorid: 53909    When I lived with my parents, the street was named Butternut Drive. For some reason as a kid, we always thought it was a funny name.  
Date: 3/18/2006 6:47:00 PM  From Authorid: 63121    My towns funny, we have section named after different things, trees, fish, birds, universities, bodys of water, northern animals, then there is just a couple of random ones that don't really fit in.  
Date: 3/18/2006 6:49:00 PM  From Authorid: 47618    Not really a "strange" name per se, but we have Colo-rectal Specialist located on Booty Street. No lie.  
Date: 3/18/2006 6:56:00 PM  From Authorid: 35720    "High St." That's the only thing I can really think of.. lol.  
Date: 3/18/2006 6:56:00 PM  From Authorid: 63194    trout
  
Date: 3/18/2006 6:57:00 PM  From Authorid: 63194    lafayette nots wierd...but there seems to be a lafayette street in every town that i have ever l ived

Date: 3/18/2006 7:45:00 PM  From Authorid: 12709    I live in Las Vegas, and when you take I-15 to California, there is a street named Zzyzx Rd. lol  
Date: 3/18/2006 8:38:00 PM  From Authorid: 11348    Cemetary Road, Slide Road, Noname Street... lol I think that last one is just sad.   
Date: 3/18/2006 9:13:00 PM  From Authorid: 6915    The Avenue...seriously.  
Date: 3/18/2006 9:14:00 PM  From Authorid: 62310    I think people would think all the roads around my house are unusual because just about all of them are Hawaiian names. There's only one that I can think of that isn't.  
Date: 3/18/2006 9:15:00 PM  From Authorid: 6915    Oh, and Sugar Road..its a cemetary road but it has a nice name. We have numbered streets in the city.  
Date: 3/18/2006 9:16:00 PM  From Authorid: 7574    I live on Abbey Rd and everyone has to comment about the Beatles. Mmmm..There's no really exciting streets, except I would love to live on "Bland Drive". It's near here, somewhere.  
Date: 3/18/2006 10:22:00 PM  From Authorid: 63200    Heh, well, also not *really* G-rated, but I've lived in 2 towns with "Blow Street". I heard those signs got stolen all the time. --EM of GW

Date: 3/19/2006 2:34:00 AM  From Authorid: 53052    rossiter is a odd one, we have a christmas lane, fort which people will occasionally change(with a peice of white tape) to Fart though people tend to change most often at the corner of fort and cook(they also change cook but that isnt a G word) umm if i pull out a map i could give you dozens.. the most annoying thing about streets in this town though is you have a "st" and a "lane" it's not uncommon for the street version to be in one area and the lane to be in a completely other nowhere near eachother

Date: 9/6/2008 12:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 21903    One I used to live 2 blocks from was called (and I am NOT making this up) Bonerwood. I never go over it, that childish-high-school sense of humor still makes me laugh when I think about it! I mean...how do you tell someone you live on Bonerwood!?
