At which numerical designation would you find Lawrence?

  1. 4800 N

  2. 6400 N

  3. 6000 N

  4. 5200 N

The correct answer is: 4800 N

Lawrence Avenue is located at the numerical designation of 4800 N. This alignment corresponds with the grid system used in Chicago, where streets are measured in relation to a central point. North and south streets in Chicago follow a numbering convention based on their distance from Madison Street and State Street, which are considered the origin points of the grid system. The designation of 4800 N indicates that Lawrence Avenue is located 48 blocks north of Madison Street. Each block in the grid system represents roughly 100 feet, and thus, knowing the numerical designation allows for easier navigation and understanding of the city's layout.
