Italian street names are oftentimes dates

/ get back, laurettadimmick

I don’t think we name streets in the states after key dates from American history, do we? I can’t think of any. Fourth of July Boulevard? Nah.

But here it’s common. I live on Via XX Settembre (September 20 street) and it intersects, as you can see below, with Via Nove Febbraio (9 February Street).
