Edward Everett Road ---> Tinner Hill Road (Falls Church, Virginia, yesterday morning). The street used to be signed as just "Tinner's Hill." I liked that better.

"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."
—Olaf Kolzig, as quoted in the Washington Times on March 28, 2003,
commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.

Louisiana Airborne Memorial Bridge → Ladera Lane (Norman, OK)


Ladera Lane is where Wheatland Drive, a collector in Norman's Eastridge neighborhood, changes over to Wood Valley Road, the main collector through the as-yet-mostly unbuilt Summit Valley addition. As it is, Ladera Lane is a short stub that extends on either side of the intersection, connecting to nothing and with no buildings. But it does have signs.

Added a rule concerning frontage and service roads:

Quote
19. Frontage and service roads for freeways, tollways and expressways are playable. The jurisdiction for this type of the road is the road that it fronts or serves.

Oink Joint -> TimkenSteel (Canton, OH)

See Rule 17 in the OP for how you can play this.

David Dr. => Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive (Shreveport LA), exit sign for the south end of the latest I-49 extension, not yet open to southbound traffic so I took this shot from the shoulder of the open northbound lanes:

Young Drive ---> Galesbury Drive (Chantilly, Virginia)

I avoided this play after the MLK one since it has no alternative option to the "Y."
