The New Orleans suburb of Harahan has Hickory - Dickory - Dock.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Hickory and Dickory do not actually intersect at any point, but I MAKE THE RULES so this kind of thing is allowed. This is probably not even the best intersection in NO but I drove by there yesterday and thought it was pretty cheesy so I had to share it.
What collection of streets can you come up with?

I used to eat at the WOW on Mounes almost everyday. And I lived right in front of it, basically a 5-10 minute walk to my apartment complex.

Not as much funny as obnoxious. Here we see Burke Rd, Burke Lake Rd, Burke Centre Parkway, Burke View Ave, and Burke View CT all within half a mile of each other. Good look finding anything in that mess.

We don't do cardinal directions around here. For example, you would think that West Braddock road would somehow be to the west of Braddock Rd. It is not, and it is not even directly connected. Also, the numbers are repeated.
So if you're looking for 500 W Braddock RD and find yourself at 500 Braddock RD you'd think you'd head west but you'd be WRONG. There's also an E Braddock RD that is only about 750 ft long to add to the confusion.

I recall trying to deliver in Baltimore or Philly ( or some other old assed eastern US town) and because of logic dictating that west and east of a street should relate to a map, compass point, crow flight, hunting trail, sheep trail, goat trail, metric system, banana, I ended up half an hour out of the place and totes in the wrong direction. I think when a 5 ton truck isn't at the higher end of vehicle pricing in an area, I really should have figured it out. The giant Georgian houses and the low branches from the 3-400 year old trees were a clue.
