If it's numeric, then obviously the street is just following order. The rest is simply politics. A lot of times streets are named after the original land owner, as a deal to sell the land which provided the street to be built. The majority though is politics, part of town it's in, or simply a city choice.

Quality and essence. It is difficult to define, like the difference between making love and having sex. Some would say they are the same, others would disagree. It is what you feel, not what you see. When you see art, you know it is art, and not just a picture or whatever. It talks to your soul, rather than somewhere rather south.

Yup. Specially at night when it's really coming down but in a way that it's not really all that cold. You know, gentle. The clouds low, but not depressing bouncing back all that available light almost warm and friendly. Like heaven is that much closer, it almost makes street lighting unnecessary and traffic is almost non existent. It makes everything look clean and new. There aren't any real shadows, and when the light does hit the snow, even in the shadows, the snow sparkles here and there like little stars or diamonds. I really love that.

"Routine" refers to speeding, running lights, LP light out, ect.\n\nAn example of a non-routine traffic stop would be that the car doesn't pull over or they're pulling it over for something like the examples above but in reality they're pulling it over because they're suspicious of a load or something more than the reason the initial contact was made

I tend to see the real world, but in an altered state.\n\nFor example, I once sat on the side of the road and watched a bus ride by for twenty minutes, it just kept coming and coming like a giant stretch limo.

By definition a driveway is really a private road that connects to the public street system. Today, these 'roads' are usually short, but the name sticks. We park our cars on them because, after having 'driven' the 'way' to the private house, we would obviously have to stop when we arrived. We drive on parkways because the 'park' of parkway is not the same word as 'park' meaning to stop. A parkway is defined as broad road usually marked with scenery and a landscaped island. Scenery? Landscaping? Sounds a lot like a 'park', as in the recreation space. Thus we drive on parkways because they are glorified ('park' like) road (Latin 'via' = road, and 'via' is also related to the word 'way', hense a 'parkway' literally a 'park-like road'). Hope this helps.

Yes, although DK has a point. A puddly street catches the light and throws reflections around. It can be a metaphor for a character's state of mind etc etc...

In my opinion a sustainable city is something like an auto sufficient place and without limitations...On the other hand, this is what i found on the internet:\n\nSustainable cities... \n\n\nHave functioning infrastructures \nNeed people with vision \nAre responsive to the needs of the people \nAre part of a wider sustainable context \nAddress alternatives from a wider perspective \nRequire active citizenship and good governance \nHave the capacity to identify problems and produce concrete solutions \nListen to children, older people, minorities \nDeal with their garbage \nRecycle/regenerate themselves \nAre based on citizens' sense of ownership and responsibility \nAre convivial - enjoyable and fun places to live and visit.\n\nAfter reading this...I think that it is talking about utopia rather than a sustainable city.....No wonder I couldn't find a definition in google
