Advance City Hall, Oak Street and Sturdivant Avenue
Start at Advance City Hall, printed right in the middle of the sheet. Oak Street runs north and south beside it, and North Oak Street carries on above. Sturdivant Avenue crosses just to the west. A wider road cuts across the whole sheet at an angle, from the top right corner down past City Hall to the bottom left. It isn't labeled. East of City Hall, East South Street heads out toward the right side of the print. Now look north and west of City Hall. Poplar Street, Grissom Street and Jane Ann Street run north and south through those blocks. Up at the top of town, School Street and Tupelo Street run east toward the right edge. In the top right corner, Sycamore Street runs north and south, and Benton Avenue runs east and west.
South of City Hall the blocks get tighter. Vine Street runs north and south near the bottom of town, and First Street, Second Street and Sand Road run east and west nearby. Osage Drive has its own short row of buildings close to the bottom edge. Out on the left side of the sheet, Industrial Park Road runs north and south along the edge of town. The ball diamonds aren't labeled, but they're drawn right beside the Westfield Park label. Many of the roads are named, and each red shape is a building, so zoom in on the preview and look for yours.
