Street Names in Las Vegas

[dewline]

There's this project I have to track the street names of Ottawa and Gatineau. For a couple of years, I was using Spacing Ottawa as my venue for publishing such information as I could share. Since that's been archived, I suppose I'll have to use Flickr - my username there is "dwight_ew" - and this blog for that project for now.

Anyway, I came across this item about Las Vegas this morning:

I expect that devilc will have comments once she reads that.

There is a whole fleet of streets for a housing development started in 1978 that has Starwars names. My friend Janice grew up on Moff Tarkin Lane.

I also live 2 streets down from Roddenberry Drive. Yes, named after him. There's a bunch of Trek fans on that street and a network of people looking to buy a house when one comes up for sale.

...Huh.
