Corner of Market and 12th |
I think I'll give blood soon. |
Anyway, why is there no First Street in Frederick? Why does some "other named" street appear between numbered streets? In Ocean City, it happens all the time. You're looking for 28th Street on one side of Coastal Highway, but it's Robin Drive on the other side. So, driving south, you'll pass 32nd Street, but the next time you encounter a numbered street, it is 26th. It makes you wonder what happened to five of the numbered streets. In Frederick, going south on North Market, you'll encounter 14th St, then Frederick Avenue, and then 13th St. Was Frederick Avenue there first, and then the numbered streets were added? Was it formerly an alley between streets? Was it carved out of extra land after the numbered streets were named?
Same car. See above. |
The lyrics to "Let it Be" were written in the sidewalk margins |

OK, here's a quiz for you Frederick readers. There is apparently no First Street, but what is the highest numbered street? Extra points will be scored if you don't need to refer to a map!
