Somewhat tongue-in-cheek article that explores the intricacies of our road system to come up with a fake address that sounds believable.
- deisteve 2y agointerestng read. I've always been curious about how to generate realistic-sounding fictional addresses. The author's use of real-world street patterns and naming conventions is a good touch. Has anyone else used this guide or similar resources for writing purposes?
- quickthrowman 2y agoMinor nitpick with this article, it claims Minneapolis doesn’t have a 21st St or 23rd St, but if you look at a map you will find that 21st St E runs between Chicago and Bloomington Ave one block south of Franklin. 23rd St E also exists in two 1-block segments between Chicago and Bloomington Ave as well. I used to live in this part of Philips.
