Which name is paired with 16S?

Which name is paired with 16S?

• A. Washington
• B. Lapham
• C. Madison
• D. Scott

Answer: (B)

Milwaukee’s street-naming approach often links a cross-street designation with the surname of an early local figure. The label 16S is tied to the name Lapham, reflecting that historic pairing you’ll see on older Milwaukee maps where streets are named after prominent residents. Lapham is a figure historically connected to the city, so his name uniquely fits this cross-street convention. The other names—Washington, Madison, Scott—are common street names in many places and don’t carry the same Milwaukee-specific 16S pairing.
