It’s simple, don’t use people’s or other names! Use letters and numbers!
San Diego loves 4th and B for example. ruzzia, if you’re reading, keep your war away from 4th and B please. Thank you!
Anyway just have all streets start with main and 1st or main and port or whatever. Then the rest of the numbers and the letters in proper order. As an example of how not to do something let’s take my current neighborhood near Seattle…You can go to 60th and 61st. Like that’s a place. Can you imagine? The utter confusion! Well I guess if you always said the horizontal and then the vertical like in math, that could work. But complicated non the less. So don’t add names!.. Martin Luther King please!.. Ehhh is that before or after Est? Does P ave come first? C’mon!
If by horizontal and then the vertical you mean X and y, then wouldn’t you state the vertical street and then the horizontal street as those are what define the X and y positions?
