Maybe that&#8217;s why it came up as one of the top suggestions. I can&#8217;t recall focusing an inordinate amount of attention on Harry Potter in 12MC so I don&#8217;t think my search habits resulted in the hit. It led me to a BuzzFeed article, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/meganp25\/potterville-usa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">There\u2019s A City In Montana With A Neighborhood Full Of Harry Potter-Themed Street Names<\/a>. Sure enough someone could <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/2LUsnCuxz81E94VC6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">live at<\/a> the intersection of Muggle Lane and Potter Park Loop in Missoula, Montana if one found that notion appealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Streets Named After Obama<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/romanboed\/8367486705\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/8223\/8367486705_e10da817ab_o.jpg\" alt=\"Obama and the Pope: a mural in Arusha, Tanzania. Photo by R Boed; (CC BY 2.0)\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Mural in Arusha, Tanzania<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It somehow seemed more natural to have streets named after Barack Obama and indeed I found quite a nice list. The most far-flung instance occurred in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. President Obama visited several African nations <a href=\"https:\/\/allafrica.com\/view\/photoessay\/post\/post\/id\/201307030002.html#1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">including Tanzania<\/a> in July 2013 to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour\/world\/africa-tour\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">meet with business leaders<\/a>. There he wanted to &#8220;demonstrate the U.S. interest in trade and investment&#8221;. As a result the government of Tanzania renamed one of its primary streets, the road leading to its State House no less, to Barack Obama Drive. Imagine changing Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House to Jakaya Kikwete Drive!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/AiqwdQP4wimE6Hjo8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google Maps<\/a> accurately reflected the name change. However, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openstreetmap.org\/?mlat=-6.8076&amp;mlon=39.2951#map=15\/-6.8076\/39.2951\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OpenStreet Map<\/a> still recognized the previous name &#8212; Ocean Road &#8212; at the time of publication (November 2014).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Streets Named After Packers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bilinkis\/2197487507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/2325\/2197487507_a8bc9571ea_b.jpg\" alt=\"Trip to Green Bay. Photo by Santiago Bilinkis; (CC BY-NC 2.0)\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Green Bay Game Day<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, I had no clue why Google thought I&#8217;d want to search for streets named after Packers, as in the Green Bay Packers of American Football fame. It did lead to a Wall Street Journal article, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/more-legends-than-streets-1377038108?tesla=y\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">More Legends Than Streets: Green Bay Is Running Out of Roads to Name After Packer Legends<\/a>.&#8221; That seemed to be quite a conundrum in a &#8220;first world problem&#8221; sort of way. Green Bay wasn&#8217;t a large place. Barely a hundred thousand people lived there, making it the smallest U.S. city with a National Football League team. There were only a handful of suitably grand streets for residents to name for their gridiron stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Green Bay football quarterback legend Brett Favre garnered only one short block. Granted it was practically next door to Lambeau Field and it led directly to the eponymous Brett Favre&#8217;s Steakhouse (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yelp.com\/biz\/hall-of-fame-chophouse-green-bay-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">3.5 stars on Yelp<\/a>) so that counted for something. The name of the street? Brett Favre Pass. That created a certain poetic sense because Favre currently holds the record for most career passing yards in the National Football League (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/leaders\/pass_yds_career.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">71,838<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Streets Named After Rizal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bensonkua\/3723552249\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/2647\/3723552249_23ceded8bb_b.jpg\" alt=\"Rizal Monument. Photo by Benson Kua; (CC BY-SA 2.0)\"\/><\/a><figcaption>The Rizal Monument in Luneta, Manila, Philippines<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Streets named after Rizal was a fascinating suggestion. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.joserizal.ph\/in01.html\" target=\"_blank\">Jos\u00e9 Rizal<\/a> was a 19th Century nationalist and intellectual in the Philippines. He hoped to achieve a peaceful end to Spanish colonial rule and create an independent nation. In return, Spain sentenced him to death and executed him by firing squad in 1896. He became a Filipino national hero and many regarded him as an early powerful force in the independence movement. His body now rests in the Rizal Monument in Manila, complete with an honor guard offering symbolic protection around the clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe this came up because his 150th birthday celebration happened a couple of years ago. One site offered <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">A Jos\u00e9 Rizal @150 Tribute<\/span> [<em>link no longer work<\/em>s] and included a list places named for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I expected numerous honors and commemorations in the Philippines. It was a little more unusual to see a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seattle.gov\/parks\/find\/parks\/jose-rizal-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">park<\/a> in Seattle, Washington (<a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/q4htRpDXVocAPWwg8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">map<\/a>). Apparently Seattle had a large, active Filipino community. Also there was a Jos\u00e9-Rizal-Stra\u00dfe in Wilhelmsfeld, Germany (<a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/TQygKnJAKgriBVUc7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">map<\/a>). It turned out Rizal lived nearby while he attended medical training in Heidelberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Streets Named After Lord of the Rings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0;\" tabindex=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d2488.57766258273!2d5.546053215231217!3d51.41081442558233!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x47c727911226e1ad%3A0xe995449a7d3e6991!2sLaan%20van%20Tolkien%2C%20Geldrop%2C%20Netherlands!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1586636496066!5m2!1sen!2sus\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" aria-hidden=\"false\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Harry Potter can have streets, so can Lord of the Rings.
