Title: Fredericksburg, TX street names
Post by: Poiponen13 on November 02, 2022, 02:25:23 PM
I remember from something that street names in Fredericksburg, TX have a hidden message. But I can't see which. Which could be the hidden message?

"The 10 cross streets east of the courthouse in order are Adams, Llano, Lincoln, Washington, Elk, Lee, Columbus, Olive, Mesquite and Eagle. The first letter of each street name spells the phrase ALL WELCOME.

The 10 cross streets west of the courthouse in order are Crockett, Orange, Milam, Edison, Bowie, Acorn, Cherry and Kay. The first letter of each street name spells the phrase COME BACK."

Such hidden messages in street names would be cool. Some sentences:
UNITED STATES
RUSSIA HAS INVADED UKRAINE
JOE BIDEN
NEW YORK LOS ANGELES CHICAGO HOUSTON PHOENIX PHILADELPHIA SAN ANTONIO SAN DIEGO DALLAS SAN JOSE (top 10 cities)
THERE IS A GOOD CITY
GOOGLE STREET VIEW


Are there any other cities with hidden messages?

Nothing against Biden, but I'd keep away from naming anything after anyone living. I've already gone through the Mark McGwire Highway (https://www.riverfronttimes.com/news/mark-mcgwire-highway-to-be-renamed-after-mark-twain-2580248) debacle.

Only two of those are sentences, and one of those two doesn't mean what you intended.

I just did a quick search, and there actually doesn't seem to be a place called Good City anywhere in the world. So maybe THERE IS NOT A GOOD CITY would be more accurate.

If I could place a hidden message in the first letter of street names I would name the streets so it spelled "T H I C G I R L". It would be fun to make some uptight people angry.

I meant "HERE IS A GOOD CITY", i.e. a city which is good, not a city named Good city.
