Voilà,
dans le quartier de la Butte-aux-cailles, j'ai remarqué un jour cette étrange configuration d'une rue portant deux noms. La rue Gérard se termine au no 55, sans séparation avec le no 1 de la rue suivante, la rue Samson. Le dessin situé sous les deux plaques illustre parfaitement la perplexité que peut éprouver le passant à cet endroit.

5 legs! Not two, not four, but 5! That is perplexing! I like it though.
RépondreSupprimerParis street names have always puzzled me a bit, since I'm American and we tend to have long parallel streets. I'm sure you know much more than I do, but my observation is that there isn't really a grid -- it's hubs and spokes, which leads to some very short streets (like Rue de la Cavalarie which goes around a corner) or very long streets. The Boulevards des Maréchaux is another example -- one can't remember who was who among the many specific street names. I'd love to hear more of your observations.
RépondreSupprimerTHIS example is the ultimate, though, and the mural is great.

Haha love this!
RépondreSupprimerIt's good to make one think even if you're confused. Good one.

Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. ☺
Strange indeed that the same street has two names :) The person in the mural is certainly quite perplexed. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Kwarkito.
RépondreSupprimerQue c'est etonnant, il faudrait savoir pourquoi... Peut-etre un Gérard Samson si honorable qu'il a été décidé de l'honorer 2 fois...
RépondreSupprimerStrange but I certainly like it. Have a great day today.
