I'll take street and avenue numbers any day of the week, and twice on sundays.

I suppose, you get used to it, just like everything..its all perception..all i heard in Vancouver was how great it is that the streets for the most part are named and not numbered...Yet try finding anything off the main streets without a map...

Calgary quadrant system is great, for the most part you dont need a map...most streets are tributaries of either Drive or BLVD...so it shouldnt be that hard to find.
