the solution to everything in this town is pour concrete on it and give it a genteel name.

is there a reason why they CANNOT build a street with straight lanes?


etc.

3. Raveneaux

At work, I recently had to write something about an apartment complex in Houston with that name. As I recall, it was in the West Champion area, wherever that is.

9. I don't know if there are apartment complexes around here with names

like that, but Tacoma's nickname is "The City Of Destiny"; usually used by the town fathers and a few optimistic tourists.

7. We have one, Turnberry

It's a condo complex. That name is okay but all the streets are named for holes on the Turnberry golf course in Scotland. Examples: Roon the Ben, Bide a Wee, and Goat Fell. My parents are condo shopping and liked this one but my mother put her foot down and refused to live on any of those streets.

It's really not as nice as it sounds.
