The Streets of Camden, NJ

Ever wonder why it’s called Line Street, who Baird was and how he earned a boulevard, or whether “Mickle” is supposed to be a noun—or a verb?

Here’s where we’ll eventually uncover that Benson Street wasn’t named after a sitcom, Carman Street didn’t honor a woman named Carmen, and find out exactly who Admiral Wilson was.

These are the little mysteries that make Camden’s streets so fascinating. And seriously—can someone please explain “Joint Alley”?
