I'm still not entirely confident that I know if University is a Street or a Road or what. (Pioneer Parkway is different because it's just a two-name road.) War Memorial Drive is always either "War Memorial" or "War Drive." And you can even fill out official forms here without filling in if your address is "street" or what without anybody balking!
