As a history buff, I love this idea and I've been a supporter of bringing back street names for quite some time. Bringing back "avenue Notre Dame" would be a nice nod to the French Catholic history of the Rouleauville area. As a descendant of the early German immigrants to Bridgeland/Riverside, I'd also like to see Berlin Ave and Dresden street brought back to that area.

Conversely, 17th has built up a fair bit of brand equity and it is certainly our most well known numbered road. There's nothing stopping numbered roads from becoming well known destinations, like 5th Avenue in New York for example.

Also, the poll question for this thread does not make sense.
