It’s not just the grid. It’s that the naming system is identical as well. The blocks are also exceptionally large to accommodate urban farming, and the streets wide to accommodate being able to turn a tram of horses. I’m not sure if Navoo was planned according to the grid or not. From looking at the names, they haven’t retained the naming scheme. Just about every town in Utah is centered around the intersection of Center and Main. Every other street is a numerical reference to that intersection. So E 100 South Is the street running parallel to center street 1 block south, to the east of Main. There is an E 100 South in just about every town in the state. For the history look up the Plat of Zion by Joseph Smith. 99pi has a great episode about it.
