"Public School 153" sounds like it came out of Half-Life or something

Why did they stop and move to 61 without exhausting all the options?

Even more confusing if you want to meet at an intersection

it's a confusing system at first, but once you learn it it's actually not too hard to figure out where something is, because Queens is (mostly) on a grid system.

Pretty good write-up of it here.

I knew this was Queens before I even looked at the map.

We're at 60th and 60th. Take a left on 60th and take it to the second stop sign. If you see 60th, you've gone too far.

40.71597° N, 73.90479° W Roughly.

Meet me at Road and Street.

Oh, I'm at Lane and Drive. Be there in a sec.

No wonder there's so many angry people in New York.

Where I grew up they had certain streets end when they intersected perpendicularly with another one. Turn, and go down this other street and you'd eventually be able to find the original street continuing in the same direction, just not in a straight line. Named the same, too! Made trying to find a specific address before GPS and smartphones needlessly difficult.

Also, the font and size was the worst. You couldn't tell if '1 ST' was '1st' or '1 Street'. Same with '3 RD': was it '3rd' or '3 Road' (they had both separate streets in the same town).

That's in addition to 4th Ave intersecting with 4th Rd, like in this image...

Let me introduce you to 4th Street in Mountain Home, Idaho

60th Ct? What's Ct for? Cunt?

"We're near the public school."
"Which one???"

In my city, there are also things like "60th Road Place" and "60th Avenue Court"...the possibilities are endless!

As soon as I saw the title I knew it was Queens lol
