- Many residents today may not recall the crazy-quilt "dog leg" intersection of John, Bond and Main streets, or
A segment of Dorr Street now forms the transverse part of the dogleg at Frank's cutacross.

crooked shape of the street
Krzywe Kolo jest ulica zalamana pod katem 90 stopni - to jest wyjatkowo ostry "curve"
curve w moim rozumieniu to zaokraglenie o wiele mniej dramatyczne, lagodne - wiekszosc "normalnych" ulic jest curved i nic w tym dziwnego, oczywiscie poza Nowym Jorkiem - tam, datrek potwierdzi :), jest ich niewiele

Chestnut Street is one of the earliest streets in Weston. The distinctive sharp bend in the path of the road reflects the earliest land division lines. - http://goo.gl/ahoQyV
