 Hey Ross, it sounds like you hail from up my way, or at least where I
grew up. I know just the sign you mean on 495! In Richmond, where I
live these days, there is a street called "Boulevard". Not even "The
Boulevard". Just "Boulevard."

 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.)
