Sec. 148. Numbering and naming streets.
Main Street shall be the east and west line from which all
houses and lot numbers shall be counted, those to the north of
Main Street, as north, and those to the south of Main Street, as
south.
All streets maintaining comparative parallelism with Main
Street shall retain their present names. The meridian street shall
be Thirty-Third or Green Street, but shall be known as North
First or South First Street, as indicated by its position north or
south of Main Street.
What is known as Thirty-Second or Church Street north of
Main Street shall be known as North Second Street East, its
continuation south of Main Street, as South Second Street East.
What is now known as Thirty-Fourth Street, shall be known as
North Second Street West or South Second Street West, as the
case may be.
Whether one goes east or west, the streets running so as to
intersect Main, actually or by supposed extension shall be known
by the natural numbers increasing in either direction from the
meridian at First Street, save in the matter of Park and Ridge
Streets.
