How would you describe the location 'the 300 block on Main Street' using the Major Street Hundred Blocks system?

• A. A landmark on Main Street in the 300th district.
• B. The 300th intersection of Main and a cross street.
• C. The entire stretch of Main Street from 100 to 300.
• D. A point on Main Street located in the 300 block along that street.

Answer: (D)

In the Major Street Hundred Blocks system, each street is divided into blocks labeled by hundreds (100 block, 200 block, 300 block, etc.). The 300 block on a street is the specific segment between two cross streets that carries addresses in the 300s.

So describing the location as a point on Main Street located in the 300 block along that street precisely means you’re identifying a spot on Main Street that lies within that block segment, not at an intersection or over a longer stretch of street. The other options mix in landmarks, intersections, or an entire extended stretch that doesn’t match how blocks are defined.
