Naming our street.
The local government is going to rename our street.
Our address is 23 shady Hill Lane. I built our home in 1992 and by the 10th of this month we have to submit our proprosals of street names to " them" so that "they" can choose. I/we just heard about it tonight, at about 10:00 pm. Naturally I/we would like something that the three other neighbors would accept. My list so far is as follows. Potomac Valley Drive Potomac View Sky View Drive All We'll Drive Shotgun Way Cherry Hill Alcyone Drive Gracie Place Gracie Lane Lois Lane Hillcrest Lane/Drive Sunrise View Sanctuary 1060 West Addison 1600 Pennsylvania Ave Hope Springs Mossberg Way Taurus Way Beretta Way Ruby Ridge Freedom Ridge If you have an idea for a street name, that you think that we would actually use, please submit it. Thanks. Tom

Re: Naming our street.
Did they say why they need to change it?
How about "Sky View Crossing" (Xing)

Re: Naming our street.
I/we think it's a 911 thing.

Re: Naming our street.
Shady hill lane is now related to 911

Re: Naming our street.
I believe the local government wants to lessen confusion by NOT having similar sounding addresses when someone calls 911.
Here in the sticks if we have to call for back-up,,,something went REALLY wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If they are trying to give your road "unique" appellations to avoid emergency crews going for a wrong address because of similarity, then I think perhaps any of the "Potomac" ones will not be a runner. If you are in view of the river, then so many other housing schemes round you will likely want to use that system also. They are likely to reserve those names for some existing streets of over a hundred years maybe. It's a pity at all your address is changing, it sounds pretty and evocative. Here's a few suggestions, maybe they would be sufficiently "different" enough to gain favor: Citadel Rise/Ridge/Road Elm Hall Lane Tanglewood Grove and in the romantic vein of your current street name: Spirit Rise Lark's Rise [don't forget the apostrophe!] Partridge Grove Joe
