If anyone's trying to find these streets on a map, they're all streets, not avenues, e.g. 45th St., Mercer St. In Seattle, Sts are E/W, Aves are N/S. This is an extremely common mistake in Seattle, and I have no idea why.

Fixed. Thank you.

  Gainesville, FL has got their stuff together. Streets are North/South; Streets has an S in it and so does South, they all also have a T. Ave are East/West; Ave has an E in it and so do both East and West, also Ave and East share an A. It's either really silly, or genius, or complete luck that my overly analytical brain turned into something real.

    "Street" has E, for East and West, they all also have a T Street sounds like East. "Avenue" has N for North and U for South

  I just want to make sure I say I wasn't trying to criticize or anything, just trying to improve the clarity of the post.
