Best Street Name

STAFF PICK: Alvernon Way has a lovely Spanish-sounding name, evoking the stately poplars of an alameda, the architectural splendors of the Alhambra, and other alfresco pleasures, but the midtown north-south drag honors a local businessman who flourished in the boom years of the 1950s. His name, as you doubtless guessed, was Al Vernon.
