Questionable Street Names Across the Country

Up next in Illinois, we have the street name Supreme Court. Maybe the street earned its name because it’s located near a courthouse, or perhaps someone was just feeling extremely patriotic. Either way, for all of us who love America, I’m sure we can appreciate any sign that highlights a part of our American democracy.

The first thing that comes to mind when seeing a street sign that reads “Supreme Court” is that the street must have some kind of historical significance. Maybe a long time ago there was an important meeting there about the creation of laws that wasn’t detailed in the history books.
