A billboard for the new Locale subdivision in Boise went up before they even had finished naming all the streets

Corey Barton Homes recently put up a billboard on the north side of Lake Hazel Road for their Locale subdivision. It has a map for what will eventually go into the quadrant east of Cole Road and south of Lake Hazel Road. As shown above, there will be five types of color-coded homes (and neighborhood names): Yellow attached townhomes (Hayloft), Red alleyload homes (Stones Throw), Light-Blue patio homes (Barnwood), Brown front load homes (Sawmill), and Medium-Blue estate homes (Sugarwood).

But when I showed my wife a closeup of it (click on it for a larger, clearer view) , she noticed something I had missed. Look in the three yellow ovals I added later. Going north-south there is two-block-long NEEDS A NAME AVE., and south of it going east-west there are two parallel block-long NEEDS A NAME streets.

Decades ago, when I briefly lived in metro Houston, a newspaper article in the Chronicle had quipped that if developers were honest most of their subdivision streets would have to be named with variations of Long Flat Dusty Road.
