Your username checks out except "Can" IS too prepared.

I choose to read this in caveman speak.

Back in the day, Queens was mostly farmland. Right after WW2 the New York City GIs wanted houses, and didn't want to be too far from their old neighborhoods. Farms got sold but the original streets had already been mapped. That's where this monstrosity was born.

I looked up this monstrosity on a map and it seems it alternates Avenue, Road, and Drive north to south and Street and Place west to east

Welcome to Queens

The longer you look the more variations you find.

It's where 58th Ave meets 58th Pl. If you hit 58th Rd, turn right on 58th St because you've gone too far.

I'm at the corner of 1st and 1st... How can the same street intersect with itself? It must be at the nexus of the universe.
