Roady Mcroadface
If y'all let politicians to advert streets too roads thus they volition undoubtedly plough over them the names of men (definitely non women). Usually these volition live men whose principal claim to fame is that they accept killed a lot of people.
The best agency to avoid ending upwardly amongst a route map which is dominated past times the names of manful individual psychopaths is to crowd-source the naming of your streets too roads. By doing this y'all tin terminate ensure that your route map is instead a delightful wonder of surreal humor. At to the lowest degree that is what happened inwards Belgium.
In Brussels metropolis officials decided that the populace could suggest the names of the streets inwards a onetime industrial district which is undergoing regeneration. The populace were invited to suggest the names of 28 streets too squares inwards the novel Gare Maritime neighborhood. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 jury thus chose the winning names from all the entries. Allowing a jury to brand the lastly alternative for the district's novel route names was land intended to ensure that the metropolis didn't terminate upwardly amongst controversial, offensive or overly ridiculous street names.
However I am happy to denote that the novel Gare Maritime neighborhood volition accept a selection of surreal too wacky route names. My favorite is 'Ceci n'est pas une rue' (this is non a road), which is an obvious homage to Magritte's famous surreal icon 'Ceci n'est pas une pipe. You tin terminate persuasion the novel route names for yourself on the Discover the New Street Names interactive map.
Among my other favorites inwards these novel route names are Place of Great Men (a novel populace foursquare land dripping amongst irony). There are too a lay out of roads too paths which plough over the hope that they mightiness Pb to a ameliorate place.There is a Happiness Way, a Better World Path too a Dreams Drive. There are too 2 streets named for famous Belgian women. They are the celluloid manager Chantal Akerman too the kickoff Belgian adult woman to perish a doctor, Isala Van Diest.
