Since nearly all of Holland is historic it would be interesting to know what the original street names were. Did certain historic figures fall out of favor? Dave

And now for something completly different!
Here's an interesting curiosity in the Netherlands. North American computer programmers might not be aware of a particular industrial park north of the old historic city of Amersfoort. The interesting thing about this area is the way they named the streets. Some streets are named after programming languages, such as Cobolweg, Basicweg, Algolweg, and Fortranweg. ("weg" in Dutch means "way".) Other streets are named after other computer terms: Computerweg, Outputweg, Modemweg, etc. Link to map. Cheers! Hans
