Streets that have a number as just part of the name

[Streetman]

To help explain the topic, the best example is probably in Twentynine Palms, CA, which has 29 Palms Highway going through it. My town, Hamden CT, has two examples: Four Rod Rd. and Six Rod Hwy. (A rod is 16.5 feet; the names describe the original width of their rights-of-way.) Another example, which is my contender for most unusual street name in CT, is Twenty-Four Bumper Rd., signed on a CT-8 overpass in Harwinton. Any such in your area?

Old Road to 9 Acre Corner, Concord, MA
Seven Star Rd., Groveland, MA

I assume you're excluding ordinals?

Nine Mile Road near Richmond, VA.

One of the oddest ones of which I'm aware is Ben C. Pratt Six Mile Cypress Parkway in Fort Myers, Florida. I don't know why it has such a long name and I've never bothered to ask our relatives there whether they know.

Yes, of course, exclude ordinals.

Nine Mile Road near Richmond, VA.

There must be hundreds or thousands of these across the Midwest.  Perhaps in other areas that used the same surveying techniques of township and range.

Although that might technically violate the restriction on ordinals. It's not quite 1st, 2nd, 3rd. But 9 Mile is 9 miles from the baseline, 10 Mile is another mile along, then 11 Mile, 12 Mile, etc.

Nine Mile Road near Richmond, VA.

A quick search shows there are many roads named One Mile, Two Mile, Three Mile, etc., so I would exclude those.

There is a Six Mile Hill Road outside Kamloops, BC. (I found it searching for a name that I thought I'd remembered in Michigan, but I didn't find that one.)

[ClassicHasClass]

Twenty Mule Team Rd (old US 466, old CA 58).

Also in California, though i'm not sure it would count, No Name Uno: https://maps.app.goo.gl/gzC31Rc1A9YrrkQR7

More so in metro Detroit. the lowest signed is 5 Mile, while the highest signed mile road is 37 Mile road in Macomb County. The Mile roads in Detroit is miles from Downtown Detroit.

One of the oddest ones of which I'm aware is Ben C. Pratt Six Mile Cypress Parkway in Fort Myers, Florida. I don't know why it has such a long name and I've never bothered to ask our relatives there whether they know.

It's thought to be the approximate distance to Fort Myers from the camp on the slough, as noted during the Ingraham Expedition (to plan a Miami-to-Ft. Myers railway). Though they seemed to be off by a mile, but it kind of makes sense, based on distances.

I think the memorial name was added on much more recently.

Seven Hills Road in northern Linn County.

Three Bridges Road east of Marshalltown.

Is there a common way to shorten that name? It wouldn't fit within the UPS limit of 30 characters in the address line. It would fit with the USPS limit of 46 characters.

I think what you're looking for are roads with numbers in the name that aren't part of a sequential system.

I can't think of any off the top of my head in Indiana.

Also a Four Rod Rd in Berlin, CT
Ten Acre Rd, New Britain. CT

The traffic circle where NJ Routes 70 & 72 meet is known as the Four Mile Circle. Four Mile is also an unincorporated community located within Woodland Twp, Burlington County, NJ.

Nine Mile Road near Richmond, VA.

A quick search shows there are many roads named One Mile, Two Mile, Three Mile, etc., so I would exclude those.

There are two variants of this in my area, Five Mile Line Rd and Fairport Nine Mile Point Rd. Still probably not what you are looking for, but both are random one-offs and not part of a numbering system, so I figured I would throw them out there.

I don't know if this is the kind of thing you're looking for since they're not unusual or unique names, but old highway alignments with names along the lines of "Old Hwy ___" would also be examples of numbers in names that aren't part of an ordered system (Unless you count the route number itself as part of an ordered system).

Again, a Google Maps search turns up lots of "Old Hwy ___" and "Old Route ___" all over the place, so I would rule those out.

The references to Virginia prompt me to think of Three Chopt Road, which is also sometimes called Three Notch'd Road in reference to the particular trail blaze that was used in colonial times to mark the route. The road supposedly follows the approximate route the governor and General Assembly used to escape the Brits after Jack Jouett's Ride (a major historical event you learn about in fourth grade if you grow up in Virginia—he rode 40 miles west overnight from eastern Louisa County to Charlottesville to warn Governor Thomas Jefferson and the General Assembly that British cavalry were coming to try to arrest them, and he made the ride in time for all but seven members to escape to Staunton via Three Chopt Road before the British came).

Honorific street names tend to be uncompromising with regard to length.

I remember, before the area was rebuilt, there was a exit On I-75 near Dayton OH for Stop Eight road
