Which of the following describes the meaning of '2100 block on Oak Street in SE'?

• A. It indicates a cross street between Oak and 2100th Avenue.
• B. It indicates the entire Oak Street within SE quadrant.
• C. It indicates the 2100 block along Oak Street located in the southeast quadrant.
• D. It indicates a landmark-based fixed point only.

Answer: (C)

The meaning being tested is how a street block description identifies a specific location on a named street within a city grid. When you see “2100 block on Oak Street in SE,” it points to a particular segment of Oak Street that sits in the southeast quadrant of the city and corresponds to the 2100 block in the block-numbering system. The block number tells you which portion of the street you’re on (roughly 21 blocks from the baseline), the street name tells you which street, and the SE designation confines that location to the southeast quadrant. This is not describing a cross street, the entire Oak Street, or a fixed landmark; it’s a specific block on Oak Street within the SE quadrant.
