1600N is paired with which street?

• A. Pecos Rd
• B. Osborn Rd
• C. McDowell Rd
• D. Van Buren St

Answer: (C)

In a grid-style addressing system, streets that run north–south are numbered by how far they are from a central baseline. The number 1600 N marks the vertical street at that north-south position. The street that runs east–west at that same latitude—the cross street you’d reach when you travel along 1600 N—is McDowell Rd. So, 1600 N is paired with McDowell Rd because that is the east–west street that intersects the 1600 North line at that location. The other streets listed correspond to different latitudes and do not align with the 1600 N line.
