Robert C. Byrd Dr => Danny Thomas Blvd (Memphis):

No desire to unwind things (nice to see the post after yours put P in play), but I played Danny Thomas Blvd. in Memphis almost two years ago, in reply #768. Unlike the City Name game, we can't play the same street again.

I try to do a search after hitting preview but before hitting post, to prevent repetition. As people here have pointed out on occasion, sometimes I haven't done that.
This is the first time I've ever heard of that rule! I looked at your post in #768, and it clearly wasn't the same, but I'll certainly take this into consideration in future posts.

Something went wrong with the post, so I've tried again.

Just to spice things up, there is another duplicate street name played earlier in this thread. I spotted it, because I played it the first time, but I let it go the second time because a) I don't care for this rule and b) I like the street name.

Not saying which one it is.

Seems we're having a fair bit of trouble with E names lately. Even my emergency reserve of ordinal names is (perhaps mercifully) nearly depleted...

Environmental Pkwy => Laburnum Ave:

Beat me to the punch on this one. I photographed a different part of Laburnum Ave. (same street, it's a really long one) the same day I took the Environmental Parkway photo. So I've deleted my photo from my queue.
