Metro Detroit: Where The Streets Have Interesting Names

"Inside the ever-growing web of concrete that is metro Detroit's road network, it is now possible to drive from the corner of Aretha and Four Tops in Detroit to Sue Ellen and Dallas in Macomb Township.

You can find Aretha and Four Tops in the Woodbridge Estates, a new subdivision northwest of downtown whose streets pay homage to Aretha Franklin and the Motown sound. It was dedicated Friday. Sue Ellen and Dallas are in fast-growing Macomb Township's South Fork subdivision near Card and 21 Mile, where the sub itself and a handful of streets recall "Dallas," the popular TV soap opera that ran from 1978 to 1991.

Those streets are four of metro Detroit's newer byways, part of an interconnected system that has grown to several thousand streets, roads, avenues, crescents, boulevards, lanes, drives, trails and terraces. Detroit alone has more than 2,100 streets."
