Does your city have any unusual, odd, or strange street names?

In an old part of the city there is a short little street made from red bricks called Blood Alley. At one time long ago that was where butchers slaughtered their animals and let the blood flow down the alley into the sewer. It is now made into a tourist attraction area.

      Outinda Road
      Kurdsand Way
      Phire Place (these first three all intersect each other)
      Lebon Drive (it’s “Nobel” spelled backwards, it commemorates the famous prize)
      Via de la Valle (in Spanish, “valle” is a masculine noun, not a feminine one, so it should be “Via del Valle”

    Gay St
    Honeypot Rd (it's the main drag through the suburb of Huntfield Heights, which is nicknamed something similar for obvious reasons which is precisely what makes the street name hilarious)
    Elm St - no, it's not in Springwood but it does have a costume shop called "Nightmare".
    Dumas St (it's not supposed to be pronounced "dumba$$" but most Aussies can't speak French)
