What is the numerical designation for Foster?

  1. 6000 N

  2. 5200 N

  3. 6800 N

  4. 6400 N

The correct answer is: 5200 N

Foster Avenue in Chicago is designated numerically as 5200 North. The naming convention in the city uses a system where avenues are assigned a numerical designation based on their distance from the central point at State and Madison Streets. The designation increases by 100 for every block moving north. Therefore, since Foster is at the 5200 block, it is appropriately labeled as 5200 North. This numerical identification is crucial for navigation and understanding the layout of the city, especially for services such as transportation and logistics. The other options reflect other locations or are incorrect numerically according to the city's grid system.
