That is my biggest complaint about the city of Calgary. The sprwling subdivisions that have the same prefix for every street, and those stgreets wind any which way they want. So aggrevating. Call me boring, but I like cities to try to stay to some sort of grid. the older sections of Calgary did this. Straight streets with rows of houses. Now, all it is is randam winding street after another. The city of Calgary needs to stand up to developers and enforce stricter guidelines as to the development of neighbourhoods. I want a grid!! (I know, I'm boring)
