Now that I can think about my hometown in 3D I realize that the way the “downtown” only makes sense if it was once the intersection of two important regional roads, but then with automobiles half of one got shifted a block over to avoid a turn too sharp for motorized speed and then the town got reoriented around an L-bend from the other leg of that one of the crossed roads to one of another.
