Then there's the most famous Toronto street name, the one immortalised 
as an album title by the 60s band Kensington Market: Avenue Road. (It's 
the northward extension of University Avenue and of Queen's Park; it 
runs north from Bloor Street to Highway 401 [which we call "the 401" 
locally] with an interruption at the Upper Canada College campus.)
