Which block number is associated with 119th Street?

• A. 11900 S
• B. 1190 S
• C. 11200 S
• D. 11900 N

Answer: (A)

In this grid system, each numbered street maps to a block number that is the street’s number followed by two zeros, plus a direction (N or S) to show whether it’s north or south of the central baseline. For 119th Street, the block designation is 11900 with the southern indicator, because it sits on the south side of the baseline. That’s why 11900 S is the correct label.

The other options don’t fit this pattern: 1190 S would be far too small to correspond to 119th Street, and would imply a different, lower-numbered block. 11200 S would correspond to a different street number (112th Street). 11900 N would place it on the north side of the baseline, not the south.
