This That & The Other Streets

Location: Porters Lake, Nova Scotia, Canada 
Address: 9 This Street
Date: July 2025

  Porters Lake is a small community located about a 30 minute drive from Halifax, Nova Scotia.  We diverted through there in our travels in order to see an unusual cluster of street names. We said to ourselves, "We've got to see This!". And of course That and The Other.

    Okay, so follow along carefully as we are only going to say this once (actually a few times). Take Highway 7 through Porters Lake and turn on This Street. First you will come to That Street. Don't turn on that street. Stay on This Street and you will reach The Other Street. If you take The Other Street it will take you back to That Street and eventually you will end up on This Street again. If you had turned on That Street you could still get to The Other Street by following it to the end. The Other Street will take you back to This Street.  If you then turn right on This Street you can get back to the highway.  Don't worry about getting lost as This Street dead ends at the lake and That Street always takes you to The Other Street and vice versa. Basically every street in this little cluster touches The Other Street. If you are on a street just take that street until you get to This Street. Stay on this street until you get to the highway. Easier done than said.
