Experiment: How to number Broad Street in Philadelphia?

[edit]

@Smallbones, Beyond My Ken, Foroa, Dough4872, Fae, Davidt8, Peetlesnumber1, Dough4872, Tm, and Nick-philly:
Hi, folks. In Center City Philadelphia, north-south streets are numbered in either direction from Market Street with up to 100 numbers per block, odd numbers on the east side and even numbers on the west. Thus, Arch Street, the first major street north of City Hall, begins the 100 Block of North Broad Street; and Chestnut Street, the first major street south of City Hall, begins the 100 Block of South Broad Street.

I couldn't figure out a way to easily separate the North street numbers from the South street numbers in a single category. So I broke them into separate categories. If any of you has a better solution, I'd like to hear it. But separate categories — Category:North Broad Street (Philadelphia) and Category:South Broad Street (Philadelphia) — keep the street numbers in consecutive order for each.
