Boston has E St, intersecting W 1st St, between D St and F St as you'd
expect. But W 1st St *crosses*  E 1st St at the grid discontinuity (extends
one block east of the oblique intersection with).

When a street further onto made-land than W 1st St was built, it was named
New Cypher St of course (cypher being an old word for zero).

(I'd love to get planning approval for Negative One St beyond New Cypher
St, but  the new Convention Center fills the space.)

We also have a St James St, less well known since Greyhound moved their
terminal from there into a shared multi-mode hub.
