"Rubberkneckers" is an very knice spelling.

It's known as the 'street with no name', city council had given up replacing the oft vandalized signs eons ago.

Starbucks are nowhere to be found here, save for the slow, infrequent run of a streetcar named Desire.

Oh kno! What is happening to the integrity of MFD's spelling?! I blame these late knight updates. Thanks, Harry, I think I'll have to amend...

TAKE 2

Memory is short within this transient community.

No one is aware, least of all Su-Kim-Lee at #37, now the proprietress of a nail salon up front and a happy ending massage parlour at the back that this former little shop of horrors once housed the ill-fated 'HEADLESS BODY IN TOPLESS BAR' establishment.

"In the old days we had a proper community round here. We had a bonfire every year and the whole area turned out to watch. Us kids were given food and toys and the businesses put on displays of their best goods. We all knew each other then and you never ever saw a policeman."
Mrs Rose Tinted, aged about 80.

street (n.), streets (pl.)

Tom, Dick and Harry went out to the street, where they realized just how intense the streets can get.
