Brodhead Avenues &  Streets

Brodhead is laid out like Manhattan, with avenues running north/south, and streets are east/west.

In 1891, the avenues and streets were not numbered as they are today, but were family names (from my understanding, after the land owners), with few exceptions such as "Center," "Exchange," and "Commerce."

The following is a list of original names (with today's noted next to them).
